You are Dear

you are dear by Dorsey McHugh

YOU ARE DEAR (8×8/oil on canvas)

You are dear…..what a lovely thing to say to someone.  There are few people in our lives who hold that role without variation.  They are open and soft and they love us.  They also tell us the truth.  They tell us without any judgement they think we could try harder to mend a broken friendship.  They find a way to get past the thorns that grow up around our hearts to isolate us.  We trust the people who are dear to us.  We do all this imperfectly.  We stomp over and bump into other hearts all the time.  But, love and forgiveness and thanksgiving are waiting with open arms for our surrender.  It is easy to see where strength lies.  It is easy to see how to love when we know we are loved.  The few steps it takes to surrender to loving is worth the miles it took to get here.
