What’s interesting about every new relationship is that with each one, you get to look closely again at who you want to be.
It’s as though you get to look into this person’s eyes as they look back at you and paint each stroke of your character and color in your personality as they fill the blank slate that is you…
It’s as though you get to decide if you want to start telling yourself a new story… about who you are and how things have come to be… whether or not you want to invest in new ideas… fresh thought processes… in shadow work that’ll allow you to more calmly be…
It’s as though you get to more prominently feature a more evolved version of you… a more brave version… a more loving version… the version that maybe wasn’t ready or far enough down the path to count as a whole number upgrade… because maybe you were closer to a 1.1 version than a 2.0.

It’s that with each one you get to meet a new—hopefully upgraded and better—version of you.
