A fine line

There is a difference in the way things are valued.

Something that is cherished and looked forward to is a gift no one can deny.

Something presented as an imposition can be exactly the same thing, but dreaded.

I want to be wanted.

I never want to be put up with.

Nobody does.

I think it is better not to have anything to do with someone if you are simply putting up with them, because neither of you will be happy, or comfortable.

Being wanted, on the other hand, is the most glorious feeling in the world.

There is a fine line in between, but one is the road to heaven and the other, well . . . you get the idea.
