IT'S TOO LATE TO ASK 'WHY' WHEN THEY ARE GONE.....

Be brave enough to ask are you ok,

brave enough to actively listen & hear what they say,

brave enough to listen to what you don't want to hear,

brave enough to let them say what you don't want them to say,

brave enough to listen without a response already planned,

brave enough to be emotionally intelligent,

brave enough to know this isn't about attention-seeking,

brave enough to know it's not a game,

brave enough to let go of your ego, your pride, your need to be right, your need for control,

brave enough to know it's not about you,

brave enough to let your walls down,

brave enough to show compassion,

brave enough to listen even if you don't get it,

brave enough to just say

'I LOVE YOU; EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE ALRIGHT; YOU'RE NOT ALONE'

even if you don't believe it.
