It's okay to be a bit broken sometimes.

It's okay to be a bit broken sometimes. I believe we all are at various points in our lives. It's not a permanent state. We can work on healing if we want to.
It's not okay to be unaccountable though. When you won't take responsibility for your words and actions, that's when you do irreparable harm to those around you. That's when repair takes a back seat and people have to protect themselves from you.

These days, I think about what binds people together. A lot of it is needs that we have within ourselves. And unfortunately, I've come to believe that many of those needs can't be filled by another person. Each of us has to work to become whole. But we are taught to try to find others to fill those holes. We are taught that another person will make us complete. We put tremendous burdens on those we love.

So today I'm trying to understand the difference between asking our loved ones for care and support vs asking them to fill our deepest needs.

What's the right way to love each other? And what's the right way to love ourselves?
