IN ONE LIFETIME YOU WILL LOVE MANY TIMES, BUT ONE

3/14 Edited to

Love is a complex emotion that touches us in many ways throughout our lives. While we may find ourselves drawn to different people over the years, there is often that one profound love that imprints itself deeply on our hearts and memories. This unique love can shape our understanding of relationships, resilience, and even self-awareness. From personal experience, I’ve found that this soul-burning love isn't just about romantic feelings but about the intensity of connection and vulnerability shared. It challenges us, changes us, and sometimes even leaves a bittersweet ache. This is the kind of love that can inspire growth or teach hard lessons, but it’s always transformative. Moreover, this idea resonates widely because it reflects the universal pattern many experience: happening to love multiple times, yet remembering one love that truly altered their life’s course. Recognizing this can help us appreciate our past connections without diminishing their value, understanding how each relationship contributes to our emotional depth. It's important to cherish all kinds of love while acknowledging the lasting impression of that singular, soul-stirring love. Whether it leads to lasting happiness or heartache, its influence endures, highlighting the profound ways love shapes who we are.

how many times do you wear a bra before wash?

I’ll usually wear mine twice but one of my coworkers said that’s gross. For context, I work in an area that’s kept at 40 degrees, so no sweating. I thought two days was fine and I buy rather expensive bras so I didn’t want to wash and wear them down too fast. Am I actually gross for that? #AskL
