““In mature love, in order to reach a point where we can find the objects before us lovable, I feel that we must first focus on finding ourselves lovable. This means discovering the truth about our selves and our desires and then honoring this truth to the best of our ability. This is not so much a matter of choosing to leave a relationship because “you deserve to be loved the way you want to be loved” but because you deserve to know and be who you truly are without self-reduction.””
