Calm Is the Goal Now

I used to think love was intense.

Big emotions.

Big reactions.

Big efforts to keep everything together.

But healing softened that belief.

Now, I crave calm.

A home that feels steady.

Conversations that don’t leave my nervous system shaking.

Relationships that don’t require constant explanation.

Calm is not boring.

It is secure.

It is safe.

It is earned.

And I will choose calm — even if that choice disappoints people who prefer chaos.

Because peace is not something I stumble into anymore.

It is something I protect.
