healthy love exists and it’s worth being patient for

the future doesn't exist yet. everyone around you who seems so certain of who they'll be in ten years is harboring an idea, hoping, but all we have is right now is our current reality inching forward with time. if you don't know who you want to be yet and can't even imagine a future with you in it: it's okay. you aren't supposed to know everything, or have this detailed view of what you want it to be like. but there's no harm in hoping for a future that fits you, and watching it shape itself into a more tangible reality as it comes. most importantly, you don't have to feel guilty for not feeling like you're able to see past tomorrow. you can take it one day at a time.

Love yourself so much that the lack of love from others doesn’t even bother you.
