Loyalty... What does that mean?
I have always described Chris, my son as a very loyal person. He doesn't like change and when he commits to something he refuses to turn his back on it... He is loyal to not only people but decisions he makes regarding health and goals.
Each one of us can ask ourselves are we loyal?
Definition:
loyals: These are people you can trust to have your back all the time, you can close your eyes when sleeping and they got you covered or turn your back on them after handing them a knife or gun and not have to worry that they will be tempted to use it on you. They never abandon you.
Faithful to a person or a cause; firmly in alliance to somebody or something. Always there for somebody when they need you.
In some parts of my life I have been faithful... Of course the one that you need to be most faithful in I failed... Lol... MARRIAGE! At least I'm not alone in that one. We committed to forever but only made it about 15 years... We were faithful a lot of years and even through the hard times I wouldn't change it. I have wonderful children and I learned so much through those years...
I do believe we really tried... For the first several years I never said anything negative about him... Simple because I didn't want people to think badly about him and even after he did 18 months in anger management in house treatment program I still wanted to make it work. I believe we had a true love for each other we just couldn't seem to make it work... Wether it was his passed, my codependency, a child with a disability... I'm not sure...
LOYAL... FAITHFUL... Hum...
I have to say I was TOTALLY and completely faithful to my children... They had my complete and full attention and there best interest was always my goal. I put my life on hold to make sure they had everything they needed and wanted... Was this healthy? Well I can only say I'm pretty proud of the way Chris turned out... Was it worth my own sacrifice? Absolutely...
Loyal... To friends...
Do you have friends who have been there through thick and thin? Have you been there for them? Have you never said a bad thing behind their back? Have you told them what you really think to their face? Have they told you a thing or two? That's what a true friend is... May not always be together but when you are its real... Its deep... Through the good and bad of this life we call a journey.
Well I NEVER dreamed I would find another man I could be loyal and loving with... Well my heart is starting to open a little each day. Meaningful relationships make our life fun, happy, challenging, and full... At this point in my life it always comes back to my kids... I miss the life I had, but I am enjoying the life I now have... There is no going back... Forward is the only choice.
Maybe you have had a life change, maybe someone has not been loyal to you... That hurt can be used to make sure you are faithful and loyal don't let that hurt stop you from having full happy relationships! We only have one life... One journey... And we use the things that have happened to us in all the chapters of our life.
I hope there is someone or lots of someone's in your life you can dedicate this song too!
