We need connection. We need affection. But we also need freedom and the right to come undone in front of the people we willingly choose. So let people choose you in their own time. In the meantime, don’t wait, don’t fixate, just show love and go back to your post.
"When you get these jobs that you have been so brilliantly trained for, just remember that your real job is that if you are free, you need to free somebody else. If you have some power, then your job is to empower somebody else.” -- Toni Morrison
