Feelings are real, but they’re not always facts.
You might feel unloved,
but that doesn’t mean that you’re unlovable.
You might feel confused,
but that doesn’t mean you won’t find clarity.
You might feel behind,
but that doesn’t mean you’re not on the right path.
Feel the feelings.
And then move through them.

SOMETHING TO WATCH
I recently rewatched Her, the 2013 intense romantic drama about a man that falls in love with his AI digital assistant…

But regardless of the state of tech, I highly recommend rewatching the movie.
