To Those ...
I can't help but think of those who dread Valentine’s Day.
However this day finds you, may today be a reminder that even though life is not what you thought it would be, you are loved.
Without a doubt, you are loved and seen and chosen.
To those ..
To those who never thought it would be this way.
To those who are single.
To those who are mourning their spouse.
To those who are searching for love.
To those who are tired of resonating with the hopeless romantic.
To those who have chosen to be single.
To those who feel far loved.
To those who pray for change and change and change.
To those who are waiting with hope and wonder.
To those who feel guilt or shame for how things ended.
To those who are tired.
To those who are left holding onto memories of what was.
To those who feel unwanted.
To those who are healing.
To those who are lonely.
To those who lie awake in the middle of the night.
To those who feel stuck or wrong or behind.
To those who are mending a broken heart.
To those who continue to pray with faith.
May today be a reminder that sadness and celebration can walk side by side.
You can be hopeful and dejected.
You can be fulfilled and wanting.
You can feel more than one thing at the same time.
May today be a reminder that it’s okay if your life doesn’t match the picture you thought it would look.
It’s hard and heartbreaking and frustrating.
And there are no words that can meet a dream that has been unmet.
For as hard as this day might be, may today be a reminder that you are so worth loving.
You are.
And you always will be.
