In Love, sometimes you have to let go...to give space for growth and development. It's hard.

You want this person around you all the time, because you love and admire them, but...sometimes....without change....there is no growth and development.

And, Love is dynamic.
We can't allow our selfishness to curse it into a stagnant state.

I really enjoyed this paragraph from a story written by Caroline M. Yoachim: Tending The Mori Birds


“When you’re ready,” she said. Prem reached out to her. She was his dream, and she gave him the strength to bear his sorrow. He could not leave her like this, dying, but never dead. It would be so cruel, so heartless. The bird, her bird, stared at him from its cage. It was her cage, too. She had given him the key and become his prisoner. Could he release her? He went to her, held her in his arms as he had done in his mind so many times. He ran the tips of his fingers down the side of her neck till they rested above her collarbone, and the skin was as smooth as he’d always imagined.
