a question that sort of answers itself. love is difficult and confusing because you live in self-loathing.
you believe yourself to be unworthy of love and yet you desire it. you live in self-loathing as a ways to justify this perceived unworthiness. but you do not get to decide whether or not you are worthy of love. that’s someone else’s job. and anyone who‘s worth anything in this life will love you regardless, they’ll love you because.
love demands growth. and growth demands you to look those shameful, bleeding parts of yourself in the eyes, then reach out to touch them.
poking and prodding at these parts that have gone untouched for so long that they have become you, is painful. and what’s even more painful is letting go. release that familiarity, that comfort, because the reality is; it’s damaging. and there’s no nobility in suffering.
the work that comes with loving hurts, but it’s always, always worth it.

one invites you to be better, one tells you you’re not deserving of growth. growth feels like too much work for those who haven’t fostered confidence in their agency, but healthy love encourages agency
