I feel this… and even though it is out of context I know it too
I know you know it!
I used to think it was a curse, but hmm…
friend and I are in discussions now about the T-shirt. You know, the “Not For the Faint of Heart” T-shirt.
I might have to settle for a cheesy ballcap, or button, for now, but at least others would have fair warning! Not that I really think they don’t mostly know so….pretty quickly! [If they want to know.] But I could use it like a disclaimer? Or maybe a badge of honor, depending on how I look at it….
LOL – no – but you are one of the dearest hearts to ever beat.

I’m glad you laugh, because it’s true, and it’s true that it’s funny.
There was one who even used the word “fierce”.
Your comment? Thank you for your always kindness to me. I don’t know what you see, but am just glad you see me….

Your friend could have said a lot worse about you as I have had said of me – being not for the faint of heart means that you will always have strong supporters and friends brave enough to always love you without fear. I think I would like being ‘not for the faint of heart’ myself one day.
Worse things HAVE been said of me…in fact my friend said it by way of commenting that someone else recently had not run away screaming [figuratively] after hearing me speak my truth about something. They actually sometimes do! Occasionally, someone likes it…. ::grin:: and I like THAT.
BTW, I think you ARE Not For the Faint of Heart! By that, I mean an honest, passionate, truthful person with a truth not based on popular opinion or correctness, and an intense love for…well, for whatever and all that you love. I love that about you!
Just because we can’t or choose not to tell all of our truths to everyone, doesn’t make it any less truth, or make us any less. It is hard sometimes though, to know when we’re choosing, and when others are choosing for us! Don’t you think? Once we go gunshy, it’s very hard to tell…at least for me…
And yet again you say everything I hide quietly in my heart out loud – I love when you do that.
It has been so long since I have felt that someone was willing to hear what I have meant all along instead of what words I make a shield of just in case I’m in danger of that gunfire I fear most…
I am and have been under fire for a while now and it sure would be nice if my shooter would just stop aiming at someone like me who is no longer relevant to anything of or about any aspect of who or what they are or their life.
I am one against – and I’m not even actually against anything or anyone myself, just constantly ducking and covering – hiding out when I can and just waiting for the ammunition to finally run out.
I suspect there may be a bunker with an inexhaustible supply somewhere though because no one have managed to muzzle their weapon yet…
Love,
L.
Eventually, the ammunition will die off but until then forgive as you will and never forget …
I know…actually it was said with love. I’m just that way….
