Loving Those Who Deserve It

Love is a gift. One of the most precious things we can offer to someone. But here’s something we often forget—not everyone deserves access to your energy.

So many of us have been taught to give endlessly. To be kind at the cost of our own well-being. To tolerate relationships that drain us, because isn’t that what love is supposed to be?

No. Love should never leave you feeling empty.

True love—whether in friendships, family, or romance—feels like warmth, like a safe place to rest. It lifts you, not weighs you down.

So as you go through life, remember this: You get to choose where your love flows.

💛 Love the ones who celebrate you, not just tolerate you. You don’t need to shrink yourself to fit into someone else’s world. Real love makes space for who you truly are.

💛 Love the ones who listen. Who don’t just wait for their turn to speak, but actually hear you. The ones who make you feel seen, even in your quietest moments.

💛 Love the ones who show up. Not just when it’s convenient, but when you need them most. Love isn’t just words; it’s presence.

💛 Love the ones who make you feel at peace. The ones who don’t add chaos to your life but bring a sense of calm, of belonging.

💛 Love yourself enough to walk away from what doesn’t feel right. Love should never be something you have to beg for. It should never make you question your worth.

At the end of the day, your love is precious. Offer it to those who cherish it. And don’t forget—you, too, deserve to receive love in return. 💛
