There are things in life that got us to start asking questions
They are the things that no one can answer
The things that are just left unsaid
Things like "How do you know you are loved"
Is it shown in the actions?
Is it spoken out loud?

"How do you know if you are doing the right thing?"
Everyone has their own definition of the right thing,
   So who's definition do you follow?
"How do you know when you truly know that you know someone?"
Is it by knowing all their secrets?
Is it by knowing their likes and dislikes?
Or is it by knowing what to expect from that person?

So how do we answer these questions?
We lie. We say that we know the answer.
We say that it is in this one way rather than another way.
We pass on our miss guidance to our children and they pass it on too
There is never an ending cycle.

So instead of passing the misgivings on
Such as "A boy picks on you because he likes you"
Lets not teach our daughters to appreciate abuse but
     To teach them to stay strong and speak out
Tell them that only time and experience can give you the answer,
      So keep searching and don't ever stop.
