I was told I had low self-esteem & didn't know what love was. For those reasons I "settled". I might not know what love is but I know what it is NOT! Love is not never forgiving. Love is not harboring hate. Love is not always easy or never painful. Love is not fearless. I am not settling. Nor am I running. How can I ever find love with my hands tied behind my back & my eyes glued shut? Love is supposed to hurt, like they say what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger. I'm not dead yet. Every minute of every day we find new things we enjoy about each other. They might be things we once overlooked or took for granted but nothing stays the same. We are loving the constant change and growing. Love is supposedly a battle. Well if we both fighting to be together isn't the prize each other's heart? I don't care if I lose half of myself in this relationship if I am destroying half of my partner as well that way we can complete each other...
