I've been doing a lot of thinking in the past few months about what I *think* I want and need to make me happy. Especially from the person I love the most.

I then came upon this quote:

"Because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have."

And it struck me as incredibly true and relevant to my life right now. I read it over a dozen times the first time I came upon simply because it makes so much sense.

I spend too much of my time thinking about all the ways he should love me, and all the ways I wish he would love on me.

None of that really matters in light of the fact that he DOES love me. I've let myself become too wrapped up in Disney princesses and white horses, and it's all very arrogant of me.

I have a man, who loves me with all he has. Who wants nothing more than to make me happy. For whatever reason, I've had a difficult time seeing that.

It's been hard to let go of the fantasy I've spent the better part of my life creating for myself. The life I thought I'd live. But once I realize that that world is all just in my head, and I discard it... I see I have something amazing in front of me, something better than anything I could have ever imagined.

I have you, love.

And that's all I really need.
