This is poignantly put Thomas. What a beautiful example of authenticity and how the feedback loops your beingness is creating brings a feeling of being loved and appreciated.

So often, we twist ourselves in knots to ensure we are loved and appreciated by others - while at the same time longing to be loved and appreciated for who we truly are. Your example shows how it takes true honoring of oneself - risking the loss of it from others - to free oneself from this dynamic.
