Awakening Without Hooks, my internal notes After a Wedding

This started with my step sister’s wedding. It was beautiful. The love was real. I drove home a little teary. That heave in the chest kind of full. Not because it was not beautiful. It was. I was happy for them. I was also wondering if I will find a love like mine. I know my love will look different. I will not have two hundred people at a reception. It will be small. It will be different. Quiet. Intentional. The size will fit my truth. Later that weekend, while recovering, I found some Alan Watts. Not a revelation. A partial echo in a hallway I have been building for years. I do not buy all of it. There is fluff. Under it there is a backbone I can use. I take what lands and leave the rest. What follows is mine. https://www.lostintxtlation.com/awakening-without-hooks-my-internal-notes-after-a-wedding/
