Hey there, fabulous! Something’s been tugging at my heart, and I couldn’t help but scribble down my thoughts and send them your way.
So, let’s talk about this notion of having someone else be your other half to complete you.
You’re an extraordinary soul, filled with unique dreams, passions, and an infectious spirit. But here’s the deal, my darling – you don’t need someone else to complete you. Nope, not at all.
You see, pop culture can sometimes paint a picture that true happiness lies in finding that special someone who will magically make you whole.
But guess what? You’re already a masterpiece, and you don’t need anyone to fill in the gaps. You’ve literally got everything you need right within you.
Now, don’t get me wrong, love and connection are beautiful things. They add a vibrant splash of color to life’s canvas.
But they shouldn’t define your worth or determine your happiness.
In fact, relying on someone else to make you happy is a surefire way to feel disappointment and perhaps even resentment from time to time.
Why? Because, no one can truly make you as happy as you can when you need it. Plus, that’s an unfair burden to make someone else responsible for your happiness.
That’s where practicing self-love and self-care on a regular basis alleviates any need to seek the care and love you desire outside of yourself.
When you are in a relationship and know you are already whole, you won’t look to another to “make you happy”. You will already know how to make yourself happy.
Then you can just sit back and enjoy each others’ beautiful wholeness together, without any of the pressure of being responsible for the other’s happiness.
With boundless love and endless encouragement,
XOXO
