“Everybody finds love in the end”
The Merging of Two Worlds (The Meeting of Full Individuals)
“[A] more harmonious relationship, more of a balance, and love is closer to inhabiting a shared world, a shared relationship. And what this means in terms of relationships is that both people remain fully themselves and neither person is an object or a tool, and the relationship is something that you can live inside together” —(2026) Josephine
(You need to exist, or else there is nothing for the other person to love — Sunny)
