Do you know what hurts so very much? It’s love. Love is the strongest force in the world, and when it is blocked that means pain. There are two things we can do when this happens. We can kill that love so that it stops hurting. But then of course part of us dies, too. Or we can ask God to open up another route for that love to travel.

What I’ve Learned: 1. Just because someone says they love you it doesn’t mean that they won’t hurt you. 2. Life isn’t fair, things will happen that shouldn’t, people will win things they don’t deserve, life will go on. It’s okay. 3. Sometimes just getting out of bed is enough. 4. You don’t need a million friends, you just a few good ones. 5. Everything. Happens. For. A. Reason. 6. Stretch marks and scars are not defects. They do not make you unloveable. You are beautiful. 7. Sometimes a kiss is just a kiss, no matter how badly you want it to be something more. 8. Never beg someone to love you. People who can’t see the galaxies in your eyes wouldn’t know how to love you right anyways. 9. Don’t ever stop smiling, people like people who are confident. And if you don’t have that confidence, fake it till you make it. 10. Make your life worth living. If you are bored all the time or are just plain unhappy where you are, make a change. A life that isn’t worth living isn’t a life at all.
