Who you are is always enough. If your partner wants something different, it does not reflect upon you, but upon their needs and fantasies.

This is how we know we are in a loving relationship. We are blooming, and the one we love is blooming as well.

Now today, moment by moment, realize that each person and event that happens is life for you. Life is not somewhere else. See how fully you can accept the life that presents itself to you now.

Relying on another is an expression of attachment, not love, a manifestation of insecurity and suffering, not understanding the true nature of our lives.

Change is the very basis of our life, not to be fought, to be welcomed and tasted, to be seen for the gift it truly is.

It is a mistake to expect all of our needs to be met by one person or in one relationship. Honor and be grateful for that which you receive. Don't become bitter and spend all your time focusing on that which the person is not able to provide.

When we are in a truly loving relationship, we receive the gift of being known and accepted. We become more, not less, of who we are. We receive the space in which to bloom. This is how we know we are in a loving relationship. We are blooming, and the one we love is blooming as well.
