Awakenings ~

 "When you love someone deeply, you may be tempted to place demands and restrictions on them, fearing that they will abandon you. However, if love is to flourish between you, you must give your partner freedom to follow their own path, otherwise they will come to resent you. Visualize your love as a bird in your hands. Open your hands to release the bird. Watch as the bird flies freely and joyfully in the air above you, before returning to perch on your finger. "  Relationships in Partnership
