“You don’t need someone to complete you. You only need someone to accept you completely.” – Anon
Seeing as it’s our anniversary weekend this weekend, Spidey found something that kinda ties in with that.
A true thought.
Why do we spend so much time trying to find that missing piece? That one person who will make us feel whole?
It is really a wild goose chase, as we are already whole. Each of us is different, and we’re made up differently physically, as well as emotionally. As much as we look different, we act differently too.
That’s what makes us unique, who we are.
Something I always like to say is that “We are all imperfectly perfect, in our own way.”
Within each of us there is something amazing.
But there is often something not quite so nice lurking in there too.
Love, be it romantic, familial, or friendship, is all about acceptance. If you love someone, you love them for all their flaws, as well as their perfections.
And if they truly love you back, they are accepting you, just as you are.
I am by no means perfect. Heck, ask my Hubby Dearest! But then neither is he!
We have our arguments and bickering sessions, as well as sickening displays of full-on love and affection.
He loves my curly hair, and hates it when I want to get it cut.
He isn’t a big fan of social media, yet he knows it is something that helps me, with my blog and writing, and keeping up with my countless family members!
He’d rather rush in and out of the shops, and can’t understand when I chatter away to people.
But these are just things that are part of me. And he totally accepts them, just like I accept him for who he is, and what he is.
I was me before, I am still me now. Complete. But with an amazing extension attached, that is ‘him’! (And vice versa!)
Have a happy Sunday Peeps!
Enjoy your day, and be complete!!

It takes two to tango as they say. After 17 years I know that all too well. When extroverts marry introverts it can be very interesting to see.

A very true quote. As long as we look for someone to complete us we will never notice that we already are and we will get frustrated because we have expectations no one can fulfill. I like your thoughts to it too, sis. Happy Sunday!
