"...not experiencing your own capacity to love..."
This is one of the great tragedies of life, having a lot of love to give, but either having no one to give it to, or giving it to the wrong person (although 'wrong' might not be the best word here, I know) and then end up afraid to show it anyone else.
I've always been of the belief that our relationship with ourselves is reflected in our relationships with others. We draw upon the same reservoir of love, kindness, and care in both instances.
This statement really resonated: "I just want to park my love somewhere safe." To me, it underlies an even more primal need: to be seen, heard, acknowledged, accepted, understood, embraced.
