For way too long I have sought validation.
From almost any relationship I was a part of.
Friends, family, lovers, anything.
I felt I needed to be wanted, liked, loved, and moreover, appreciated.
Needing to feel it.
Over time, I have found out the hard way, it will not, and won't ever matter, as long as I don't accept and/or endorse myself.
We don't need others to recognize our worth, as long we appreciate who we are.
As long as we know what we bring, and what we have to offer, we will be ok.
We should never need to ask to be cared about, or loved.
The right people will know.
The right people just will.
All. The. Time.
They won't be swayed by the moments you may be weak and needy or an asshole.
They will stay the course.
They won't only come your way when you feel on top of the world.
They will not use you.
They will compliment you
They will always be there.
Even at your ugliest.
Trust your gut.
Always.
Riding out the storm, even if it means at the cost of their own demise.
Actions always speak louder than words.
Always.
Xoxo,
C.
