It grates,
Wearing at my spirit
Thickening my outer shell so
I withdraw,
A select few
Pull me back,
Helping me to
Shine and share
The love that surrounds
Me.

I understand. The “it” thickens and tempts me to withdraw, too. But the love is stronger. I click off the TV news, open my devotionals, read my Bible and some of my favorite blog authors, and find a reason to love back. Then I move on determined not to be “thickened” … You, too?
