Been thinking about that lovely feeling of waking up next to someone I really, really like.
I've also been thinking about the importance of cultivating self-worth from within. Not seeking pleasure or validation from external sources. I've been shockingly aware of my conditioned, deep desire to be seen, and touched, by another human-- just to feel like I exist. I fall into patterns of wanting to give love to receive love.
But I do exist already. Without anyone else, I am here, and I am whole.
