So do it. Decide. Is this the life you want to live? Is this the person you want to love? Is this the best you can be? Can you be stronger? Kinder? More compassionate? Decide. Breathe in. Breathe out. And decide.

The thing about us is I loved you and we acted like we were already married, but as bad as it sounds I realized you were a filler. You were someone I was doing all these things with that I wanted to be doing for the rest of my life with someone else, but was doing with you instead. And I don’t know if it took leaving to figure that out or if deep down I knew all along, but it was never you. It was the right play with the wrong actors. But we still had some good scenes.

[quotexcerpts]

I thought I wouldn’t live through it. But you do. You learn to love the place somebody leaves behind for you.

You get a strange feeling when you’re about to leave a place. Like you’ll not only miss the people you love but you’ll miss the person you are now at this time and this place, because you’ll never be this way ever again.

Azar Nafisi (via quotemadness)

What if I told you 10 years from now your life would be exactly the same. Doubt you’d be happy. So why are you afraid of change?
