One of the biggest mistakes we make in relationships, all relationships, not just those of the romantic variety, is that we try to pick and choose bits and pieces of people.
But people are whole, even when they seem wounded and broken, even when we seem like a hot mess, we are one whole. not a thousand bits and pieces, but one whole.
We destroy relationships and hurt people when we pick and choose. “I’ll have this, but not that,” is cruel and inhumane.
You are fragile and broken, wounded and wonderful. The question is, are we willing to be wounded and wonderful together. All the best relationships are grounded in that kind of spectacular mutual acceptance.
