What is it about quotes and phrases that strike a chord with us? Maybe it awakens an ideal we had at one time in our life, or makes us contemplate our future. Or puts a smile on our face. Or makes us think about something in a different light than we've looked at it before.
One thing I'm learning is that they don' t have the same meaning for one person as they do for another. Reasonable to assume that's the case because we've all grown up in different times, places, experiences. Maybe its the fact that we enjoy hearing someone else's viewpoint.
But sometimes we have people in our lives who use a phrase to us over and over, and that makes us feel like we're special to them. Until you hear them saying it to someone else. Does it lose all its meaning then? That's the question I've had all day in my mind. And yes, that's how I took it, as well. But is that my own fault for assuming? Another one of those things that goes 'round and 'round, with no easy answers. Hopefully, the answers you sought today were easier!
HUGS to everyone!
