She agreed to love herself deeply. She was finally the sun of her own life.

I have lost love. A few times. This recent one ached until now. As I lay down, I wished for his presence beside him. I wished for his touch and kiss.

I long. For I kept escaping the truth about loving him. Now, I have nowhere to run.

I was in love with the idea, not the man. And in the end, ideas stay with us longer than any man ever could.

Growth is painful. Change is painful. But nothing is as painful as staying stuck somewhere you don't belong.

Seven years was my endgame. Definitely, a long journey. Felt like endless, actually but I got through it. And if you’re currently on a situation right now where you feel like it’s not going to end. When you feel like you’re in a loop stuck with something you want to finally get rid of. You can.

Trust me.

If you can love the wrong one so much, just imagine how much you can love the right one.

“First steps in getting over someone you loved: 1. Write. Write it all down. Write in all caps if you have to. Track your progress. One day you will look back and be so proud of how far you’ve come 2. Feel. Don’t be afraid to cry, to scream, to cry more. Bottling up your emotions will only make them stay longer. Let it all out 3. Listen to music. It will save you. Make playlists for every emotion you are feeling and scream the words on your way to work 4. Don’t shut yourself out. Lean on the people who care for you. Call your mom. Drive to your best friends house. Talk to people 5. Listen. Sometimes being involved in other people’s problems make you realize that you are not the only one who has felt this way (although I know it feels like the end of the world, trust me) 6. Reflect. Think about all the times they hurt you, all the times they made you cry. You don’t deserve that. The right person will make flowers grow out of every part of you and never make you sad 7. Do something for you. Start taking yoga classes. Paint a picture. Apply for that job you really wanted. Now is the time to put all your efforts into making you your best self”

The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You’ve just got to find the ones worth suffering for.
