I'm not simple. Loving me will never be easy. I bring every travesty that's rocked me- with me, to the table. I won't pretend to be something I'm not, and I don't expect you to be blemish free either. That's much too boring of an existence. A past means you've lived, you've prevailed. My ears are open. My heart is accepting. I want to know how you are. I want to know what made you.. and I want to feel free to share the 'not so pretty' parts of me, with you. Alfa H
About This Quote

This quote is one of my favorites. It's what you see in many novels, movies and plays. A person who takes their past into account to make their present better. You can't love something you don't know how to love. I'm not talking about the stereotypical "bad boy" or "good girl." I'm talking about taking your past into consideration when it comes to how you treat others.
