The Ache & The Answer

7/27/25

Hi, you :) Whoever you are.
It helps if I write to someone—so today, I’m writing to you.

Maybe love has come fast and fiery in your life. And maybe it stayed. Maybe love leaving took your breath away. Maybe love left an ache you aren’t sure will ever heal. Maybe that love, wasn’t love at all. And maybe you wish you’d known that—before the leaving, before the ache. But you didn’t.

Well, if that’s you- we already get each other ;)

It all becomes so much more beautiful, promise. But in full honesty: love took my breath away again this morning.
And in the spirit of full transparency: I felt the ache again too.

I don’t know how to fix the ache, friend.
I only know how to sit really still now.
So here I am—with my now cold, hot tea—asking Love to love me. To remind me. To sit with me.

I don’t ask Love to fix the ache anymore.
The ache, after all, is what brought me here.
So I sit. I do, for a moment, what I was made to do—
Sit and be loved by You.

Ah yes. Now I can remember:
The actual love I’m entangled in.

Two things I’d bank my life on:
The ache is coming.
And Love is already there.
