Decide to Become Good at Love

The way you demonstrate, express, and bring love and the way I demonstrate, express, and bring love are and should be different. We are each our own beautiful masterpiece, fully wired with our own traumas, experiences, ancestries, and cultures. Becoming good at love doesn’t mean following someone else's playbook. Love and its expression is our own to plumb the depths of and experiment with.

We practice love as a part of our own becoming, growth, and expansion. And we don't talk about it enough. As a culture, we built vacancies, shame, and fear around needing love, expressing love, and embodying love as a social norm.

Strength and love are integrated counterparts, not opposites. You are not strong by hiding feelings and emotion. You are not weak by expressing them. These are distortions of what it means to be human, not gendered. We are all embodiments of love and strength.

Emotion is a language we all must learn to speak freely, safely, and truthfully. Not all emotion is easy or soft. But it can always be clear, kind, and delivered with positive intention.

Love is strength. Love is grief. Love is wild.
Love is architecture. Love is truth delivered with compassion.
Love is boundaries. Love is freedom.
You are love embodied, needing expression.
