I can’t tell you how good it feels to be able to let go of all the hurt, all the pain.

You learn to love someone from a distance when you realize that their presence no longer brings you peace but perdition.

This life is yours to live—it’s your moment, and your time is now. 

All that baggage you’ve been dealing with. Hasn’t it been difficult carrying all that hurt with you all year long?

It’s not that I’m emotionally unavailable. I am emotionally available, but I’m also as fragile as glass. And I can’t break again.

Forgiveness means giving up hope for a different past. It’s accepting that the past is just that — the past. It’s over. What’s done is done.

It’s safe to say that neither of us deserved what we did to each other.

Despite all my mistakes, I loved that woman. But that was precisely the problem.

I am happy that you’re happy. I’m happy that you’ve moved on. I’m happy that you finally found the stability that you’ve longed for so long.

Do you love the person or simply the situation they put you in?

If the highs mean taking lows too often, that’s not tolerable for either of you.
