you're only hurting yourself...

remember that trite ol' comment you heard
growin' up? 'you're only hurting yourself?'

yeah.
yeah.
yeah.

i was thinking about that this morning.

when we just can't get a concept down for
some reason. when over and over we hurt
someone because of it.

it's not the someone who keeps getting hurt
that matters after awhile.

they adapt, change, just look for different
things.

but you've lost out because of that. you've
lost that part of them you once had.

i saw that real clearly in someone else recently.

oh yeah. always easy to see it somewhere else.

so.
now.
i had to find it in me.

and so i did.
easily.

well, easily to find.
not easy to hold.

ouch.

but yeah.

and i saw real clearly what i'm losing.
so. um.
time to change that, isn't it?
cause i'm only hurting myself.
