"Fromm believed that love of others and self-love are inseparable but that self-love must come first. All people have the capacity for productive love, but most do not achieve it because they cannot first love themselves (Feist-Feist, 2009)."
AAA: setting off huge fireworks for IU winning the last Daesang of the night ~ big production budget
IU: hmmm that’s a nice idea for my next concert here
love isn’t about all the fancy dates and expensive gifts you see on instagram
it’s about taking care of them when they are sick, making sure they eat when they have no appetite
it’s about witnessing the other person go through life as you figure it out together, showing up for them when they are uncertain about themselves
it’s about believing in them when no one else does, even when they themselves don’t
it’s about seeing the beauty in every part of them, even the flaws. especially the flaws
it’s about seeing them at their worst and still choosing them everyday
