It is such a beautiful feeling to be loved. I used to think that love was simply caring for someone as you would care for yourself. I now realize that not everyone knows how to even love or care for themselves and that is not conducive to them loving another human being.
Still, everyone deserves love.
Although I believe love is something we should spread, I do also believe that love has targets. If you find yourself in a relationship or friendship that doesn’t feel right or doesn’t fulfill you, your love or their love may be aiming at the wrong target.
It’s impossible to think that we could fit in with everyone. I once believed that I could fit in anywhere. I wasn’t wrong but I was doing myself a disservice. I am not meant to fit in everywhere. I am meant to fit into spaces that uplifts me and allows me to be my authentic self.
It’s the same with love. We are not meant to love and be loved by everyone. We should be accepted by all but if we expect everyone to treat us in the loving way we defined for ourselves, we are not aiming properly.
Sometimes it seems like we lose when relationships and friendships (some times connections to family members) fall away but I choose to look at it as an alignment. It opens space for you to find the people who is targeted for your love and then your love.
Everyone deserves love but knowing which love is right for you will allow you to alignment to your authentic self.
I hope that you all have the love you deserve and not the love you settled for. This includes self love.
