I have learned something important about love, that it's not enough for someone to love me. There has to be at least three more things:
1) Commitment
2) The ability to love someone back so strongly that they seem to be a universal being, not just in a multitude of universal beings whom I love
3) The ability to love myself just as much
It's funny...my wish actually was granted--I met someone who loves me dearly...I just didn't specify whether I would return the love. Somehow I just assumed that I would, and as such I began giving and giving and giving too much. That is why I had to write the letter...
It is too easy to love me...
Sorry, I'm just rambling on here...egoically.
