Making a gourd for your ally..

I was concerned you wouldn't get the context for the song, but you do. That's rather nice. This song also comes from my sore spot too. You sort of took the words right out of my mouth, except I hadn't been hurt yet. I was just that way for no particular reason. I didn't give people gifts, I gave them moments of solace, distracted them from their reality by bringing them into my reality. I stopped as I realized I offered them an addiction, not a solution. I was their temporary fix, but it never lasted for me or them. Similar to your concern for low-quality relationships.

I've also reached a position of awareness where love is very real to me; however, I love myself (not my mate). I mean, I love them too (my mates) but it's more of a general love, like how I love puppies, red skies, or skulls. It's heartfelt, but I'm able to detach from those things.

Why did you transition to loving another person?
