You may have unintentionally posed in just a few words, the entirety of our whole universe, our circles of life, our drives and our growth. We are indeed searching for love, within and outside - appreciation from outside, and acceptance from within. Beautifully written. I especially loved this part; "what have i been chasing this whole time?
the perfect tarragon chicken sandwich? haute horological rolex?
the perfect damsel in distress? or maybe just the real me?"

Wonderful. X
