Morning musings ✍🏾
Something I've thought about before over the years when "trying" to understand relationships and how it relates to "love". 🥰
When someone say they "love" you, they love you from whatever capacity they house within them.
Be it a parent, sibling(s), husband/wife, friend etc.
Capacity- the maximum amount that something can contain.
Their capacity for you may not be very high - meaning they can and will love you, only so much. However they choose to express it. You can't make them show it any different way, if they don't want to. Even after you let them know, "Hey, this is what I need."
You may require more but they are maxed out.
Their ability to grow is there but they may not know, may not care nor desire to expand.
That's that verbal or non-verbal take it or leave it mentality. Selfish, but it is what it is. 😩
When you're not receiving your fill here on earth, remember, you choose your connections (believe it or not 🤷🏾♀️) so redirect your disappointment toward the right person 🤦🏾♀️ and learn to choose better. 😊
Now take this and relate it to the capacity that God has. (She always talking about God, YEP 😁)
His capacity to love you is never maxed out. His presence houses all the love, validation, healing, acceptance, forgiveness, restoration and whatever else you're in need of. It is always available. No matter what. Find your space with him and go there when you need.
The empowering thing is, your happiness meter is not predicated on a person, but know that it is housed within. 🤗
