Late Fragment by Raymond Carver

We are all just looking to belong. We search for our identity. We crave love. This poem fragment by Raymond Carver says it all. Happy Valentine’s Day. May your heart and life always be full.

Late Fragment
And did you get what
you wanted from this life, even so?
I did.
And what did you want?
To call myself beloved, to feel myself
beloved on the earth.”
Raymond Carver, A New Path to the Waterfall
