Like picking petals in a park, there are times when a relationship feels like it sits on a scale...And counting the bundles piece by piece feels so exhausting and unnerving as we get closer to a final result. Because we can count the "He Loves Me" petals, and we can count the "He Loves Me Not", but in the end that's not how Love works. Its based on whole different set of scales.
You see sometimes there are more times that one says "I'm Sorry", than the times you say "I Love You", and it may seem a bit weary to the person or people that the words are meant to be given to. But its not about weighing one set against the other, or about which pieces bear more significance to the next. Its about the connection that you've just encountered, and knowing that someone still remembers to bring an "I'm Sorry" petal or an "I Love You" at all.
Yes, there will be times that there are more "I'm Sorry" petals than "I Love You" petals on one blossom, and sometimes it may strike you as frightening that it grows at all. So the key is to simply stop counting petals and remember to grow your relationship like a garden in bloom. Because one day you'll find yourself without anymore flowers, and only the petals from the garden you've picked.
