Darling, It Gets Better (Lumen’s Diary)

I hope my story inspires you to not give up on yourself. Wherever you may be in life, whatever phase or age, it’s always worth it to start loving yourself, to start believing in yourself. I’m not saying it’s easy or fast. After all, it took me 10 years to get here.

The idea that it is not only acceptable, but normal to dissociate love from lust, affection from desire, the heart from the body. The idea that, an agreement where two people only satiate their lust in each other, and nothing else, can only be mutually beneficial.
