I think this is a fantastic post! Honestly I think you couldnt have said it any better. Great job.
And then I realized – I am only doing them harm by abiding those requests. I will never be able to prove my love to someone who has not found it already from within.
Letting go of the that doubt provides so much freedom to be who I am and learn to love myself. No one else can do that for me. It is an active practice on being true to myself.
