The Way We Love Is the Way We Live
Attachment, Ambivalence, and What We Learn to Expect
“We begin life in a room we didn’t choose, with people we didn’t ask for, learning how to love.
Love became a strategy for survival.
But maybe now it can become something else.
Maybe it can become what it was always meant to be:
not a defense, but a bridge.
Not a question, but an answer.
Not a way to survive, but a way to live.
Maybe it can become home.”
