Everyone's going to die.

Nothing lasts forever.

And people mistaken love with possession.

Like they think if I love someone, I need to own them.

They're mine.

Oh, nobody can have them.

That's wrong.

Love should set you free.

Think of it as raising a kid.

If your mom was, let's say, so controlling because she wants to protect you, overprotective and all that, the kid gets sick.

They want to run away every now and then.

So the more you are treating emotions as possessions and people as possessions, the more they want to leave you.

Because love is freedom.

Love is guiding them to be better, even if they don't end up with you.

And it's completely fine.

Self-love doesn't just disappear out of the blue.

You're not born not loving yourself.

It's a conditioning that happens from childhood, whether you had siblings, your parents were not fair, or they didn't show you affection or love or whatever it is.

There's so many reasons for self-love to disappear.

And a lot of people mistaken self-love by other things.
