"Being deeply loved gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage." – Lao Tzu
There will always be that person. That person who will stay in your heart until your last breath. That person who will always have a piece of your heart. That person who changed you and influenced you in a way you never knew before.
And no matter how hard you try to forget her and no matter how long it's been since the breakup, this person will still be beating in your heart and breathing with you. You won't be able to get rid of her, her ghost, her shadow. You won't be able to stop them from haunting you in your dreams and nightmares. But isn't that really nice? To know that this person loved you? That she shaped you, appreciated and adored you? Who taught you to love? Who showed you that you are worthy of wonderful and beautiful love?
Although that person is no longer with you and your love did not last forever, they will still remain in your bones and cells and in your memory. That love will still be so wonderfully alive in you.
Because even though that person is no longer with you, they showed you that you are magical, that you are beautiful and capable of love. Her love taught you that you deserve to be happy with or without her. Her love taught you how to love and be loved. And that you deserve it all.
Don't take her departure as a tragedy. Do not treat it like a storm, like rain falling on you. He turns her departure into a new beginning. Turn it into a new love. Into a new magic. Don't let it make you sad or hurt. Don't let her departure make you stop believing in love. She loved you for a while. You loved her. You had a life-changing love that many people never have the privilege of experiencing. So don't hide, don't hide from life. Don't exclude the people you love. Don't turn away from love. And don't you dare say you'll never love again.
You will love again. So cherish the memories and moments in your mind. Remember the days when your heart felt full. Let your soul remember this love and let this love go. Drop her into the sky.
That doesn't mean you'll forget her. That doesn't make your love any less valuable. If you move on, you're not a bad person. You have to let go of that person so you can experience love again. That you will fall in love with your life and that you will open your heart again.
You have to let this person go so you can live again. You will never forget her. You will always remember how happy your heart was.
And one day the love that will find you will never end. And you'll know why.
