it's not all fluff ya know?

N said something that made me do a double-take.

"In good times, it's easy to connect. In bad times (when one or both parties are hurt and confused) that's the crucial time to connect. The truths we tell ourselves sometimes..about "treasures" we find need to be re-examined. Don't sell our souls to the devil in exchange for a "treasure". It's easy to be taken for granted in this world, sometimes you think it doesn't matter but..."

But it does.

In short, it's a version of Fishie's "It takes a lot to fall for someone. But it takes more for the same someone to stay by your side when you eventually fall" :-O

I must have been named jerk, rubbish and arsehole (still called that by pb!) countless times in the past. Haha. ..and if I didn't know better...I would say N said it in 20-20 hindsight with a tinge of cynism. It's hindsight for sure, but...I guess not 20-20...esp. since she has been through the path of hurt and deceit yet continued on. Haha...
