I saw that I would love him,
and that loving him would mean
saying yes to the self I would become
by loving him,
and no to the other selves
I would never become by not loving
him.
I don’t know who made this
observation – but, I’m deeply moved by the truth expressed.
I think the truth of this quote
speaks to why making a vow to another person is such a profound act.
In a real way, you’re vowing to
become the person you could only become through the loving of this particular
partner – and no other.
Now that’s deep! And courageous. And generous.
