  I Stopped Chasing Perfect Healing and Started Choosing Honest Healing. Every rough page will always have silver lining, but it takes your courage to keep fighting. My mother's warning was a stone in my pocket, "People are mirrors and some will only ever show you a crack that can cut your hand". I was in my early twenties when I met this beautiful lady whom I had considered a genuine and beautiful soul by then, but l had I forgotten, 'To over trust is to hand someone a knife that can cut you'.  She really seemed to part of my world but, some people seem too good to be true.

I was flying back to my home country with my cousin brother then I met this guy so handsome, with all the charm ladies would want in man and yes, I usually hear people mention their love at first sight and to me it didn't make much sense until I met him.
