People who give you a space to grow

and who accept you

EXACTLY AS YOU ARE

not like some weed growing in the back lot, a ‘passive’ kind of uninvolved, NON love, that’s mostly about

IGNORING

(that’s what *my* parents did).

***
No, THIS love

is very

ACTIVE

and

OPEN

for

ALL TO SEE.

Not secret
or hidden
implying shame,
or something to be ashamed *of*.

Nope.

*These* people?

They really KNOW
how to LOVE.
