100 Words on Love, by Lion Goodman
–
Whenever I’ve told you this, I’ve gotten it right:
“I see you. I know who you are. You are an amazing, precious, sacred being. We are both growing and learning and changing. I will protect you and make it safe for you to be yourself. I’m here with you, and I’m not going away. I love you, just as you are. I care about your needs, and I’ll do my best to respond to them. And I’ll be honest when I can’t. When I make a mistake (and I will), I’ll own and repair it as quickly as possible. Feel my arms around you. It’s okay to let go. I will always love you, no matter what.”
