The first and most difficult lesson that I've learned from…
“The first and most difficult lesson that I've learned from previous relationships was that I would never again accept words over actions...I only KNOW what you SHOW. Ironically, this is also the lesson that I have yet to heed. When you love someone, you want to take them @ their word...you want to believe that, if given time, they will follow through. The reality is that often times you end up waiting on a bus that's not coming”
