Don’t try to change her, but converse with her. Don’t try to keep her from expressing herself, her feelings, her beliefs. Don’t try to convince her that your perspective is absolute or your thought process and decisions are the only way. She does not agree with toeing a line and staying safe, or doing the ‘right’ thing or as she’s told because that’s what someone desires of her.ĭon’t try to control her. Not in the sense of reckless and dangerous, but in the way that she is not compelled to follow the rules or traditions of the world. But she also wants nothing more than to stay her own person and to be that person next to you-growing with you, changing with you, becoming whole on her own and whole in her relationship with you. She will love you, and she will let you in. Let her breathe her own air, battle her own demons, pursue her own passions, but be there, alongside her, doing the same. Let her feel safe in your arms, but not suffocated. She has the capacity to love so incredibly, but she never desires to be kept or held down or told to stay still. Her heart is not rooted to one specific place or person. She is most alive when she can explore, when she can feel the grass or dirt or sand beneath her feet, when she can talk with strangers, when she can recede into her own space and lose herself in the moment, when she is chasing what she believes in with passion and freedom. She finds strength in her independence and gathers confidence in being her curious, adventurous, driven self.
