Check-in

The luckiest thing in the world is when you run towards someone with all your heart, and they, too, push through the crowd, firmly walking towards you. A good relationship never requires you to compromise yourself to please someone, nor does it need you to cautiously watch your step. It's the natural closeness of two hearts, a place where you can be your childlike self without worry, and they understand all your vulnerabilities and imperfections. The essence of love isn't restraint, but fulfillment; it's not about finding a perfect person, but learning to appreciate, with a perfect gaze, someone who isn't perfect yet is uniquely them. May you eventually meet someone who gives you special treatment and exceptions, becomes your light in the long night, your umbrella on rainy days, and fills your future years with endless romance.
