To be wanted, to be needed, to be desired, isn’t that the dream? That will make you feel better about yourself. That will make the way you see yourself in the mirror more Lovable or Valuable.
If they want to see you, want to touch you, want to be with you. If they need your attention, they need your support, they need your body. If their desires are of your physical touch and sexual energy, the desire to just be in your presence.
Maybe then you’ll feel Complete?
But. What if it doesn’t work like that… What if it just makes the person you’re looking at in the mirror exactly what everyone else wants and someone you have never even met?
It makes you someone who can adapt to any situation and “be” whoever is needed so you can stay wanted, stay needed, stay desired. Who is that person? Who really even KNOWS that person? What happens when you are alone and no one else’s wants, needs or desires are telling you which way to go or what to do? Do you stall in the stillness and just exist wondering WHO AM I?
Maybe the secret isn’t to be needed, wanted or desired. Maybe it’s to just BE. Not for anyone or anything else. Just to exist in contentment with ourselves and our positions in life with a strong desire to love ourselves as passionately and completely as we love one another.
