Love is not always 50/50

We all have this idea that we want this 50/50 kind of love but it is not realistic at all. We are human, some days we barely love ourselves enough so giving the full 50 percent to our relationships feels impossible.
Hi Britzie's. I know it has been a while but I hope that you are all good and that life has been kind to you all.
This post has been inspired by my amazing husband. This week has been a tough one for me. Getting out of bed every morning has been such a struggle but the days of just curling up and staying in bed are long over. I'm a mom now, I have a very active toddler that needs to be taken care of, work that needs to be done, a household that needs to be cleaned, food that needs to be cooked and the list goes on. I have been trying to just push through it all and just give the best version of myself. Or I should rather say the best that I can offer at the moment.
My husband obviously noticed that I was not OK so he put in the extra effort. It was simple things like taking Adeena with him to the gym so I could have some me-time, to cooking food or just coming to check on me every few minutes to give me a hug and to tell me that he loved me. It's all those little things that are so important.
We all have this idea that we want this 50/50 kind of love but it is not realistic at all. We are human some days we barely love ourselves enough so giving the full 50 percent to our relationships feels impossible. Bad days happen to all of us, It's in those moments that we need our partners to give that extra 80 percent because we only have that 20 or maybe they need us to give that 80 percent because they can only offer 20. We have to balance each other without judgment, resentment or hesitation. That is reality! That is love!
Much love my Britzie’s XOXO
