How many likes did I get?

How many calls do I get on my birthday?

The silliest things, we tie our worth to that, when in reality, that is something that someone can give and take away just like that.

When you create true love and cultivate that deeply within yourself, that is something that cannot be taken away.

That is the difference from materialistic, surface-level, quote-unquote, love, if you'd even call it that, versus love that is deep, that is intentional, that has a firm foundation, that cannot just be taken away from you like that.

And that is where you really have to strengthen the idea of love within your heart because you have to know that it is yours.

If you take away one thing from this episode, I just urge you to know and remember and tell yourself,

That your love is yours.

Your worth is yours.

And that is locked up in a safe inside your heart.

No one can touch it.

No one can take it away.

But when you become the kind of person who is desperate for love,

who is desperate for validation, who stays even when they are mistreated, even when they are unappreciated, even where they are not welcomed.

You stay because you are so desperate for this love, this affection, this validation.

You are then opening up that heart.

You are opening up that worth, that love.

And you're putting it out on a platter.

And you are saying, take it.

You're saying, I'll give it to whoever wants it.
