“But a long-distance romance can be a beautiful thing. It builds trust and commitment very early on in the relationship and gives way for more deeper and meaningful conversations. There’s more time for solitude, self-exploration and inner growth for the both of you and there’s more room for appreciation and less space for possession. There’s more magic when you kiss the lips of the person you love after thirty days of not seeing each other knowing that he or she will always be your destination.”
— Juansen Dizon, A Long-Distance Romance
Stop convincing yourself you’re wasting your life away. The time you’ve spent resting and healing was and is necessary. You’re not a waste of a person if you find yourself struggling right now. Healing, recovering, sitting with your pain is foundational. It’s not a waste. You are still whole.
the distance between us will never be as wide as the love i have for you
love is not rational and it isn’t supposed to be. it’s okay to fall in love with the boy everyone wants. it’s okay to fall in love with the boy who lives on the other side of the world. it’s okay to miss someone you just met. it’s okay to fall in love fast. because love is not rational. love is hearing their voice for the first time and knowing that you want to hear it say i love you every night before bed for the rest of your life. love is thinking of them every second you aren’t speaking. love isn’t supposed to make sense. it’s supposed to make you do things you never thought you would. it’s supposed to be a whirlwind, a hurricane, that’s what makes it so amazing.
