The conflation of ego with innate qualities got me heated, and my thirst for answers was quenched by holistic, metaphysical study and somatic therapies.
What’s difficult is telling my boyfriend “I love you.” I do love him. But I’m just learning the words of love. It’s frustrating. It’s scary. It’s uncertain.
Now that I have a choice, I want someone who will choose me back. I used to think I was searching for someone to have and to hold, but I know now I am searching for someone with practice in letting go.
