It took me a long time
to realize that not everything
in life is meant to be
a beautiful story.
Not every person we feel
something deep and moving with
is meant to make a home
within us, is meant to be a forever.
Sometimes, people come into
our lives to teach us how to love;
and sometimes, people come into
our lives to teach us how
not to love. How not to settle,
how not to shrink ourselves
ever again. Yes, sometimes people
leave - but that’s okay, because
their lessons always stay,
and that is what matters.
That is what remains.
(Bianca Sparacino)
