To be loved is to be changed

Because a new teddy bear from the store just doesn't have as much soul.

To be loved is to be known, Is a feeling that goes beyond words. To be loved is to be understood, To be understood when words fail you. To be loved is to be seen, To be seen when you feel invisible. To be loved is to be heard, To be heard even in your quietest moment. To be loved is to be valued, For whatever it cost and take. And to be loved is to have a safe space, To have a home with sense of belonging that feels irreplaceable.

to be loved is to be seen And to be seen is to be heard

Never pick someone who would rather tear you out of the ground from your roots and then not knowing the responsibilities on how to nurture you. #healingjourney There is a quote similar by Timothy Keller but this one unknown.

Who wants to be rejected again by someone who used to never reject them? Not me.
