I’ve been of the mindset that no one is coming for me, that I’m on my own and it’s for the best. Love seems too stressful anyway. But you’re a constant reminder that one day love will come and it will find me. Thank you for this.

One day it will, it's on the way now, I know this. I really do.

Ooof...right in the gut. Here I am convincing myself I’m perfectly happy by myself...except for those dreams I have where someone arrives and isn’t scared to love me despite me being me and I suddenly feel something again....this reminds me that there is still a subtle nagging in my soul to keep hoping, even though my logical brain says NO THANK YOU.

It'll always be there, and I do believe when the right one comes, all things quiet, and we feel calm.

I feel the comments here so much. I haven’t dated in 6 years and truly am at peace alone. I don’t stress and I actually enjoy it but there is sometimes that “well that’s nice for them” feeling when you see others in love. I often feel so many things in life are better shared but I also don’t know if that needs to be a lover.. or maybe I just don’t have hope for myself? I guess we continue on.. just wait and see..

You're doing it precisely right, staying whole no matter what. You're amazing, and I do believe there's even more in store.

Beautiful poem, you nailed it. Reading your emails in the morning is a strong way to start my day. 💜

THAT means everything! The goal for me was to create a morning ritual for people to feel centered, calm, hopeful.
