What Do You Love?
I think it is also important to answer 'what' and not only 'who' do you love? What are the things that you love? What are the things that you like to do that have nothing to do with human beings? It does not really necessarily mean big material things though as some of the best things in life are free. It is true however cliché that may sound. Simple pleasures in life that can make you happy are just all around you. You just need to stop and smell the roses. So stop being grumpy and miserable. It is very unattractive even to animals and plants.
The thing about answering 'who do you love' is that you tend to answer 'why do you love'. People are conditional. The one you love can only be agreeable at some point and can become a disaster to your life in the end. Then you start disliking the person. If you get attached to the idea you formed about a person, you will only be disappointed. So I can't emphasize enough the benefits of having other things in life that you love such as passion, hobbies or any activities that will keep you sane in this diabolic world.
In my case, I'm an old cat lady. There's nothing you can do if I don't really fancy people. It's hard to put my neighbor in my little circle so I can't push myself to love mankind. I'm fine with or without people and I've already lived with that almost my whole life. I understand that kind of life is not for everyone especially if you had been told fairytales while being cuddled since you were a kid. I have a think about my life but maybe just to justify and accept things as they are. If I had been a pampered little girl, I'd probably be so unhappy right now. I realize that it might have been a good thing to get used to being on my own and taking care of myself.
So it is important for me to think about the things that I love. But it's not really all about achieving my financial goals or waiting for cryptocurrencies to go up. It's not really all about the money. Lately, I have to pause and rethink about the things that I have to be grateful about. The things that I already have in my life. I just need to go outside and forget about my own worries and all the things that I have been working on. It's time to live and enjoy the simple pleasures in life.
So to answer what do I love?

I love pizza and my bed, lol.
No seriously, what a great post! I like to remind myself as often as possible of the things I love and the things I'm grateful for. Maybe over time, some things you love will change, or you will learn to love new things and people.
But I hope my love for pizza will never die <3
