"The way to love anything is to realize that it may be lost."
"If you’re feeling frightened about what comes next, don’t be. Embrace the uncertainty. Allow it to lead you places. Be brave as it challenges you to exercise both your heart and your mind as you create your own path towards happiness, don’t waste time with regret. Spin wildly into your next action. Enjoy the present, each moment, as it comes; because you’ll never get another one quite like it. And if you should ever look up and find yourself lost, simply take a breath and start over. Retrace your steps and go back to the purest place in your heart… where your hope lives. You’ll find your way again."
There’s no need to feel this way. To feel as though we’re holding one another back. It’s unnecessary, but it’s been inevitable. We tried. Not once, twice, but three times. It just seems like the right thing to do, the logical thing to do: to let go.
I never thought I had the capacity to love. To look beyond someone’s flaws and shortcomings and just enjoy. Now I know that’s a possibility.
In reality, I never thought we’d end up this way. Teary-eyed and nostalgic.
But here we are. With a whole summer ahead and we’re cutting ties.
This isn’t permanent, of that I am fully aware. I’ll always have something for you and you’ll always have something for me. But for now that’s all it can be, all it will be.
Joseph Anthony Herrera, I love you jerk. (:
