a 5.5 hour conversation about the differences between love and lust. by 6am we hadn’t come to a sound conclusion but was left to ponder the following: lust in isolation in order to fall in love you must first know, then like, then fancy the person, then develop a crush, then become smitten then feel…

thought provoking moments and little life matters that are helping me put things into perspective.
