Everyone talks about the joys of romantic love and I’m sure they aren’t exaggerating. What we don’t hear about is how it feels to be immersed in your own love. Some may call it cheesy or corny, but they don’t know. I’ve spent the last few months falling in love with myself and I’ve begun to understand what happiness feels like.
