Love as Anxiety

7 March 2019
Love as Anxiety

'Love rarely remains pure and selfless. Sometimes when we think of those we love, we worry whether they love us back as much or if they are happy. We may believe that our anxiety is a way of "looking after them" or that it's "in their best interest." But when we try to make them feel differently or get them to change "for their own good," that's not love. That's anxiety. It's the kind of anxiety that makes us want to change things so that we can feel better.' - Daniel Gottlieb, Learning from the Heart

In this journey of self-identity, lets never forget that we are all the same yet different.
