This should be an easy one but it is not as it hurts when I think that a high percentage of all the times I have had a positive example of love have happened when I have been an adult. I am not saying that I don’t have positive examples of how I felt loved, it’s just that I have more as an adult due to the trauma I experienced as a child.
If I had to choose a positive example of when I felt love is when a friend of mine who is the manager at PAWS Cat City where I volunteer at gave me a heart shaped stone as a reminder that I am loved when I am struggling. She had given it to me after she was able to grab a few at the end of a funeral service she attended. The person who passed away had a major influence on a lot of people’s lives including mine despite never meeting this person. Anyway, the pink heart shaped stone is a reminder of how loved I am and not just by the PAWS Cat City manager but by other friends as well as some family.
