Thank you for taking the time to visit — I hope you find something here that feels meaningful, something that stirs a quiet recognition within you. Let’s explore together — not just what love means, but where it leads us: toward growth, and sometimes toward the illusions that hide both in others and in ourselves Here are some things that often imitate love: – Attachment: “I can’t imagine life without you” ≠ “I love you.” – Infatuation: “I can’t stop thinking about them” ≠ “I love them.” – Possession: “You’re mine” ≠ “I love you.” – Validation: “You make me feel special” ≠ “I love you.” – Codependency: “I’ll fix you” ≠ “I love you.” – Adoration: “I look up to you” ≠ “I love you.” – Comfort: “We’ve been together forever” ≠ “We’re still in love.” Sometimes we say “I love you” when we mean “I need you.” Sometimes we think love is fireworks — when it’s really quiet understanding. This space is about exploring the difference — between love and what imitates it. Love isn’t always fireworks. Sometimes it’s quiet presence that stays when the noise fades. Sometimes it’s providing a smile Sometimes it’s effort, willingness to face darkness to bring forth light. ❤️ Question for you When did you realize that something you thought was love… wasn’t? Maybe it was attachment, passion, safety — or even dopamine. There’s no wrong answer. Just honesty. 🌿 — Fletcher.
