It is okay to be in love with everything, everyone. Healing is reaction, response to what happens externally — not action. Healer, heal thyself. Body, become whole on your own. Agency, autonomy, are out of your healing-hoped hands; one was in one, another the other. They both hopped out, like divers into summer warmed pool water. Without agency or autonomy: you’re alone. Empty-handed.

It is okay to be in love with everything, to be in love with everyone. To love what prompts you to love it.

Maybe something, or someone, you love will love you. Love you back.

That’s how healing starts.

From outside you, summer warmed.
