I loved this. “To not run after external change but to embody it within yourself first”. I have been heartbroken by who I thought was The Love of my life. I now know he did not have the capacity to hold all of me. This is no one’s fault, just a quite unfortunate truth.
In my healing, I am trying to become the type of partner I seek. Someone who has the capacity to understand, to question their own beliefs, to desire growth and authenticity. Someone who is kind and unapologetically authentic, who can love fully without expectation.
I felt every word. I just wrote a piece called The Soulmate I Never Had. I, too, am tired of surrendering every day, of forcing myself to feel joy, and writing is my only outlet for healing.
how beautiful 🥹 I feel so connected to every word at this time in my life. what a gift to have read this in the divine timing you speak so beautifully of ❤️
Nearly brought me to tears, you spoke of so much of the pain I feel everyday. Not feeling loved as a child, the pain of the world not being better and not changing however hard I will for it. Thank you for these words!
glad you found them when you needed them :) there is so much hope in knowing that we’re not the only ones aching, there are others like us too. thank you for sharing your aches with me.

that's beautiful! it's also okay to have expectations. it's what makes us human. <3
Sometimes, you do not want to self love your way out - you only desire to be witnessed while you learn how to love yourself.
what a beautiful sentence. thank you for sharing your wonderful brain w us.
this was so poignant - as a south asian born eldest daughter myself, i felt every word deep in my core. thank you for putting this into language.
aw i’m so glad you felt seen. that means a lot to me as someone who has had the privilege of loving multiple eldest daughters. <3
