Lots of things going on in my head. Comparisons mostly.
Mr. A recently confided something to me. I felt hurt because clearly it was something he'd been thinking about for a while. And since I would confide almost everything to him I thought he would do the same to me. Confiding after months isn't quite the same.
Then Mr. B confided almost the same thing to me. The difference? A confided in me when he was halfway through his journey. B confided in me when he first thought of the journey.
I couldn't help comparing both of them.
The person I was last year would have left it at that. The person I am now analysed it further. And I realised this was another example of comparing apples to oranges.
B confides in people easily. A does not confide in people. Ergo a level 1 confidence from A should be treasured more than a level 3 confidence from B.
And yet, though my head knows this, my heart still compares.
