Love calls you to be silent when you want to speak, and to speak when you would like to be silent.

I gave you all my secrets, and you lost them all. You lost a lot of things.But the treasure of it was in the giving, not the keeping.

Maybe that's what love is__acrificing yourself to save another, taking the insult or taking the hit.
