Be nicer, love more, worry less.  Something I've come to realize in recent years is that I've given a lot of myself to a lot of people, my heart and my time, my money and my love, my smiles and my thoughts... and for all of these people that I've invested in I have rarely received equal open heartedness.  No, I'm not mad, and no, I wouldn't take back any of it, even one single second, even the smallest kiss, even the most meaningless smile.  It just makes my heart beat a bit quicker, sometimes.  Knowing how much I've given and how little I've received in return.  I'm no martyr, but the issue is that I'm surely no saint, and there's a fine line to be walked between a good friend and a fool.  I don't want to harness this feeling when it comes to you, but I do, and I might be right this time.  I sure hope I'm not, because I'm still wearing the smile you gave me and I'm not quite ready to return it yet.
