Do you remember that feeling when you finally put yourself back together? When the noise of others expectations subsides, and in the silence, your own voice begins to sound. You have found your inner footing. You have learned to love yourself not for something, but simply because you exist.

How do you avoid, out of old habit, giving away pieces of your soul just to hold onto warmth? How do you prevent even wonderful relationships from subtly narrowing the horizons of your world?..
