Quotes by S.E. Thomson (?)

“Remind yourself every day that love is not an object. You can’t give love like it’s something to hand over, wrapped up in a gesture or a perfectly timed response. You can’t trade it like a currency or expect it to be evenly exchanged. Love is not a transaction; it’s not something you earn, owe, or outsource. It can only be created in you.”
― S.E. Thomson, A Life in Too Many Margins
