Little girls are persistent and know what they want, and when daddy tells them "No," they storm out of the room stomping their feet with a furrow in their brow, little arms crossed tightly around their chest as the indignation rises. Then say things like, "Oh yes I will" and, " You can't make me!", and " I, AM !" and such. But when you don't give in, when you stand your ground because you, after all, know what is best, they eventually forget about being mad and hurt and frustrated and they love you again. They love you because that is what they long to do. They know and feel your consistent love and guidance underneath, so they have a deep inner trust that they can keep leaning back into whether they realize it or not. This is what makes them able to love you, deeply and without question, even when you don't make sense, even when you contradict yourself, even when you are unfair or too distracted to really pay attention to them. Little girls will love you even when they know, that what you said, or did, was not coming from place of love, in that moment, because they sense that you are tired, and stressed and worn out and that you are scared too sometimes. They see you and they understand and then they keep loving the best way they can and as much as you will let them.
Sometimes, when little girls feel really strong in themselves, they can come back and tell you how much what you said or did hurt them. When you acted in an unloving, uncaring way, they will tell you their feelings have been hurt, and with love and a great vulnerability they say it because they want nothing more, than to love you and be loved back. With deliberate persistence, they keep finding ways back into your heart because what little girls want to keep showing you, is how to soften into receiving their beautiful and divine love.
