“Your longing wasn’t wrong — it was love looking for home.”
You didn’t ask for too much. You asked the wrong person.
The tenderness you offered, the depth of your devotion, the way you tried — it was all real.
Just because they couldn’t meet it doesn’t make it invalid.
Your longing was the evidence of your love. And your love was worthy — even if it wasn’t received well.
Today, bless the one who longed. They were brave.
Close your eyes. Picture the you who loved so fully. Whisper: 'You were not wrong to hope.'
Write a letter to yourself from the perspective of someone who truly saw your heart.
Devon T. “I blamed myself for wanting so much. Now I know: my love is not a burden — it’s a gift.”
Longing does not equal failure.
