Forgiveness is letting go and letting go is painful. It’s not something we do for others; it’s something we do for ourselves.
You have something so rare and spectacular right in front of you, and you are clueless what to do with it.
Nothing lasts forever. That is the only truth we are guaranteed in life. When someone says they will love you forever, what does that really mean? Then again, what really is love? I think that’s why we’re here. For each of us to discover what love means to us.
This man didn’t come here to just take care of me, he came here to take care of what means the most to me. Those who love you the most, will cherish what you cherish. They’ll nurture what makes you – you.
I’m sure there’s a lot of gray area when it comes to relationships and why we do what we do to connect, love, and navigate this crazy life.
Strength acknowledges weakness, it doesn’t ignore it.
It seems we’ve forgotten that the greatest discoveries in the history of mankind have come from bold minds who dared to believe the unbelievable and venture to do the impossible.
Pink balls are real.
The things he did and said to me were, in many ways, unforgivable. We divorced. But I kept telling myself I forgave him. I thought if you truly love someone, nothing should be unforgivable... But if I’m honest, I don’t know if I’ll ever completely forgive him. I will love him forever. Emotions are ours. They are intimate and personal. And they shouldn’t be right or wrong. No one should tell you what to feel, who to love, or how to live.
I think love – the good kind – holds an equal mix of wonder and familiarity. That feeling like you know someone, yet you also know parts of them are still a mystery that you can’t wait to slowly discover. If there’s no wonder, I think the love can die. If there’s no familiarity, I think the love already feels dead. If I were the one marrying you, I would be bothered more than I am. But you chose her.
You don’t see how ridiculous it is that your napkin standards exceed your dress-code standards for getting the mail?
Someday I’m going to get to live my happily ever after. No more packing up and driving away from the man that I love. Everyone has their time. I will find mine.
Parker didn’t love him for his perfections; she loved him for his flaws that begged for a second chance – that vulnerable part of his soul searching for its place in the world. She wanted to be that place.
His lack of an immediate answer opened the door for doubt to creep into the mind of a woman who struggled to stay afloat in the pool of insanity.
Thinking is what people do when they’re not following their dreams.
Not accepting something doesn’t change the fact that it happened or that something just is. Acceptance is this illusion that we’re in control.
Maybe everything has to break before it can truly be fixed.
I’m not in my right mind and even then I’m not sure what I would say back to you.
Vulnerability takes more strength than anything else in life. You have to be willing to feel absolutely every emotion. Vulnerability is the sharpest knife, the longest marathon, the highest.
He could never explain the most excruciating pain was always the personality that hijacked his brain without warning.
