Someone Who Is Present

Dear one, you deserve someone who is present.

Someone who will not run and hide when the seas grow unsteady or the winds howl through the trees. A soul who won’t deflect your questions, your feelings or guard against your wild heart. The one meant to stand beside you won’t play games when the time comes for action. You are not meant for connections that cause you to ache. You are meant for so much more.

You deserve someone who is actively committed to the evolution of your union. Who maybe doesn’t always know the way forward, but is willing to walk through the fires beside you into the unknown. Time is the most valuable currency we have. It is far too precious to spend on someone who refuses to grow with you. You are far too precious to spend your heartbeats and tears on someone who isn’t all in, who doesn’t recognize your worth, who doesn’t show you in their daily actions that YOU are important in their heart and life.

Life is too short to be with someone who isn’t looking towards the same horizon as you.
Our days here are fleeting, our moments uncertain. The one who is meant to stand beside you will actively seek to build a future with you. In every breath they will show you that you are a priority, not an option.

You deserve someone as committed to healing and expansion as you are.
Someone who knows we are not perfect nor are we here on this planet to be. We are here to evolve as people as well as in our sacred unions. We are here to go deep, to penetrate the skin that covers these bones and heal the wounds that live in our core. We are neither here to hide nor play games, we are here to open. To love is to surrender. Surrender the beliefs of the past, the shields that we once hid behind. To love is to resolve, to expand and to evolve. To reach for an unknown shore, together.~
