self-love is a sincere acceptance of the past an agreement to make the most of the present and a willingness to allow the best to occur in the future - Yung Pueblo

i want a love that doesn't break
one that gives me water
when i am consumed by fire
one that offers me shelter
when i am lose
one that helps me see
that the hero
i am looking for
is me

we never wanted to argue, but it kept happening because that is what hearts do when they are overflowing with old pain

This idea should not be taken to an extreme; being in community can be very healing and human beings are naturally interdependent. What you should be alert to is the constant avoidance of solitude. There is also nothing wrong with having a friend help you take your mind off something that is too heavy to process at the moment, but a clear sign of being disconnected from yourself is when too many of your relationships are driven by your need to dodge your tension.
