Why the narc will never be able to destroy my belief in love.....

I think many of the narcs out there have a goal to destroy their exes' belief in love and to destroy their spirits. They will NEVER be able to do this. I've been so fortunate with the amount of love given to me from family, friends, neighbors, kindness from strangers....it's too late to convince me otherwise.

To me, God is love. It is within me to give love to others and to receive love in return. This is the essence of who I am. I will never give up on love, joy and happiness. Do you know why? I already possess it within me. Not one other human being can take it away. I believe that for each and every one of us on this board.

I will forever continue to live my life being who I am. I tend to smile a lot and will continue to do so. As horrible as this situation has been, I don't regret doing my best to love this person who was so undeserving. I don't regret trying to love his family. To me, it is better to have loved and lost than to never love at all. I will watch out for those red flags in my next serious relationship, but I will continue to love and take risks. I believe this is part of our life experience and the greatest power is within loving ourselves and giving and receiving love to and from others. Love is the most powerful force in the universe and I will never, ever give up on it.
