For those who didn't experience love growing up ..

Do you feel that affects how you view love now?

Do you believe you don't deserve it because of the lack of it as a child?😢💗😟

I work every day to be kind and supportive. I don’t think love has been natural for me for most of my life. But, the struggle to give and receive has gotten much better over time.

But, deep down, you never lose the disassociation from being disowned or disinherited. Love just builds a big smile to cover up the scars.
