" You know, love is not dependent on circumstances. Love just is.
You feel love for someone. You feel a great amount of gratitude towards their soul, their being, because they simply exist and are a part of your life and your world.
You just simply love them.
Love formed around conditions or circumstances is something else. That’s expectations. Marriage. Silent promises that no one wants to keep saying “I will unconditionally love you on those conditions”.
But love just is. I love you. I love the way you live your life. I love that I get to be a part of it.
As simply and softly as that. "
