Hey family, this month I am diving into how I want to be loved. We can tackle what is love, but I feel that we as individuals should dive into, how we want to be loved by others. Let's get into the blog!

If we want to stay in the circle of love we must first know how we want to be loved 💗. To stay in the circle of love, I feel we must be able to express to our partner, how to love me as a person. I am learning in order for me to not run from love, I must be able to express to my partner, how I want to be loved, and how I want to be treated. It’s more than what is love or I love you. It's how do I communicate effectively to my partner, and will my partner have the patience and understanding to hear what I am needing to stay in the circle of love. Also, I am learning divine timing is so important when it comes to true love, because you could meet your partner and not be ready to love them correctly. Why? Because, we may have things that we must work on individually before we meet or reunite with our soulmate. We may have some things we aren’t ready to let go of to make the relationship work. We may not be willing to meet in the middle of the circle of love during a season 👈🏿 ( don't take this one personal). Also, divine timing is essential, patience is essential, and having a listening ear to hear your partner needs is essential. It's more than what is love or how do you feel. We may have lessons to learn before we can commit. Journeys to travel before we can love fully, and love is so much more than just the experience. A BIG part of the journey of love is patience and forgiveness 💘.

Ask yourself the question: What do I need from this relationship? For me, I do want a partner that allows me to express my needs, desires, and wants through my gifts ✍🏾. Also, I will not be anyones 'little secret' or anyones 'option' 🤨. To choose me, it is required that you not hide me in anyway. If I'm your partner, you must showcase me in public and in private. You will have to let the public know we are dating. Showcase me in the light and the dark!

I do not want my partner displaying to the world as though they are single and you are dating me. F**k no, let the world know about us. Real love requires more 💘. Point, Blank, Period! And if it feels real to you, grab your happy ever after 💘. Reveal yourself. Bring yourself fully into the light ✨. I am a woman too 👩🏾. Do you not think I want to be chosen too 💘?

Below, I am opening the door to one of my journal entry 🥰

Have you ever let GOD take the pen in your writing sessions ✍🏾? Try it. It was frightening at first, but it became much easier on the journey. And it’s like the greatest partnership on your life mission 💎.

Wrap up the blog series my child, it's time to start the major creative writing work ✍🏾. You have done enough within this creative space. And it’s time you move forward with the major creative life work. These creative projects will speak volumes within the world 🌍. -God

Okay! You know, I might pop in every now and then. Because, I got a lot to say about it ALL. -Toya

My child, I know! I Love you! And, I'm proud of you! -God

Well, y’all have to catch me on Threads. I drop major gems there 💎 weekly. Also, I am bringing a new short form series to TikTok on February 22. Exciting!!! The series "Dropping Gems" is my love note series for people who are in difficult times 💌. Please shine a light ✨ on the world when you can, because you don’t know who’s in need of your love and support. I guarantee it will change others lives for the better 😉!!!

When I finish laying the foundation for my future 🎞️. Sit me on the throne 👑 and let me tell y’all about the journey. It has not been easy 🥹.

P.S. You are lighting up someone’s world and don’t even know it ✨. Look at you shining your light on the world within one of your toughest season 👏🏾. And your light is so bright 💫. I see you 😉. She didn’t need anyone to act as an anchor ⚓️ for her, that pulled her deeper into the ocean 🌊 . She needed someone to pull her up out the ocean. Help her live within her true power and not diminish any of her gifts. Speak life into her 🙏🏾. Here I am, pulling you out the ocean 🌊, so you can stand fully in your light ✨. Be ALL of you, because ALL your qualities are the ISH 😉.

Lastly, here's a poem from my book of poetry 📗

HOLD YOUR HAND

BY LaToya D. Lee

Can I hold your hand in the rain?

Can I hold your hand in this mist of pain?

Can I hold your hand in the mist of the storm?

Can I hold your hand to show you everyone isn’t here to be heartless?

Can I hold your hand when the world feels cold?

Can I show you someone will love you forever?

Can I hold your hand to lead you through what seems impossible?
