A letter from Mar 16, 2023

Dear FutureMe, There is a difference between liking someone and wanting something from someone. You can dislike someone, and yet because you want affection, ***, or companionship from them, you will continue to stay with them. The moment you aren't getting what you want from them, you will feel angry, because all that remains is your dislike. On the other hand, you can get none of those things from someone you like. Being in their presence would just be peaceful. I hope one day you are brave enough to act on the difference. I'd like to just be with someone because I genuinely like them, and not just because I like what I get from them. In Compassionate Humanness, Me
