We deserve GOOD for everything that we are. Why wouldn't we? Filling ourselves with things that make us happy are a part of the process of finding contentment within ourselves, acknowledging our worth, moving forward . . . neglecting that is contributing to all of the negative aspects and the struggles we have. You are worth every bit of love and happiness . . .try not to let the fear be an obstacle and that damn self punishment, it only does more harm than good. There are no guarantees for anybody in any relationship or in life, period. Go and enjoy the here and the now and try not to worry about the what if's . . . . . they can just suck the livin' fun out of ya.
