Crumbs

I read a piece today about taking the crumbs because the crumbs are so sweet.

Sometimes it is not about you or them intentionally breadcrumbing. Sometimes it is about what you have to give in that time and space.

I have been breadcrumbed a lot and I have a tendency to see and empathize with someone going through a lot and just trying to get to the other side.

I have also had to face the truth of having someone toy with you with no intention of attaching in any way. They assume you know assume it doesn’t matter.

But those are the obvious emotionally stunted individuals that it is easy to detach from.

There are others who give you a bigger bite. Those that share themselves honestly. Those that you know would be hard won if anything ever were allowed to develop, those that you can see an opportunity to grasp on to.

It is harder for me to see a space of letting go of someone like that.
