i think love is found in the little, quiet things, like:
• being understood without having to explain every part of yourself.
• someone noticing when your energy shifts.
• feeling calm around someone instead of anxious.
• being able to exist without performing all the time.
i used to think love had to feel intense in order to be real. but the older i get, the more i think real love feels safe. soft. consistent. not perfect. just genuine.
