Identifying Love

“Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.”
― Lao Tzu

Weaken by Pain

Strengthen by Love

Fearful because of Hurt

Courageous because of Love

 

They loved me enough to push on the painful spots that in turn gave me the strength to move past the pain

They did not physically touch me to invoke more pain they just pressed enough on the sore spot until I decided it was time to find my strength to let it go

When fear tried to overtake me they waited for me  with an open hand and a gentle heart as I found my courage to transform from a caterpillar to a butterfly

Step by step my metamorphosis was taking form because I became courageous enough to allow their love to strengthen me

THIS IS HOW I IDENTIFY LOVE
