but you are messing up-

loving someone/thing sometimes means stopping them from getting into trouble- like grabbing someones arm as they step out into oncomming traffic while putting thier money into thier wallet after using an atm-

or not inviting an alcholic friend to go to a bar with you-

or, for me, it was leaving an abusive marriage- i loved my kids- and i wanted them to have a '2 parent' home- i kept 'hoping' things would 'get better' but staying was only dangerous for me- it was hurting my kids, and even my ex- who was unable to control his rage, or his addiction- it's people who 'go along' with smiles on thier faces, rather than having the courage to 'stand apart' from the 'popular' crowd who often demonstrate REAL love-

Though it's not easy- especially when it seems so 'hopeless'- and 'uphill'.

Maybe a slogan should be BECAUSE i support the troops, i oppose this war.
