Don't hold onto a love that hurts more than it helps.
Don't stay with someone who injures you more than they mend you.
Love isn't owning someone, it's letting them be free.
Love isn't supposed to hurt, it's supposed to bring happiness.
Discover Your Inner Strength
Often, we find ourselves holding onto relationships that drain more than they nourish. We get tangled in loves that leave us laden with sadness rather than joy. It's easy to mistake this for the norm, but truthfully, we all deserve so much more.
Opt for Love That Uplifts, Not Destroys
Being with someone who diminishes you, who causes more tears than smiles, is not what you're meant for. Real love should make you feel appreciated, secure, and utterly free. If you're feeling more down than up, it's probably time to question if this is really what love is about.
Love Freely
True love doesn't mean owning another; it means sharing a journey while honoring each other's unique paths. It's about granting and having the space to evolve, to be unapologetically you, without fear or compromise. If being yourself seems impossible in your relationship, it's worth taking a moment to ponder.
Love Should Bring Joy, Not Pain
Enduring pain shouldn't be what love is about. Though no relationship is without its challenges, love should fundamentally be a source of happiness and comfort, not constant strife. Seek a love that feels like a safe haven, a place of tranquility and joy, rather than an endless struggle.
A Personal Note to You
Dear one, always remember that self-love should be your first priority. Never let anyone make you question your value. You are powerful, deserving, and worthy of a love that not only supports but elevates you, encouraging you to embrace the best version of yourself. Fearlessly let go of what doesn't serve you well. Sometimes, stepping away opens the door to something far greater. Trust in your worth, your power, and your right to happiness. After all, your joy is in your hands, and you deserve every bit of beauty life has to offer.
