You deserve to be loved
By your self. You give and receive this love by being who you want to be and who you wish other people would be.
Fulfillment does not come from wishing everyone else perfect behavior. It comes from coming back to yourself again and again and expanding your capacity to love.
What if you didn’t have to get anyone else to love you, approve of you, or agree with you? What if you could be that for yourself and them instead?
