There are happy times, and there are sad times.
The thing is, things are going to get tough.

They're going to get hard, they're going to get difficult, and there's going to be many times that you feel like you want to quit.

But in those moments, there's something deep down that gets you through it. Whether it's love, security, or mixture of both: you get through it.

It takes patience, sometimes tears, sometimes yelling. But you get through it.

Whether you get through it torn apart or in one piece, you, yourself, and the person that you're with will place you back together.

And maybe that's what love truly is; yes there's arguments, and fighting, and a whole lot of love throughout it all, but you have to remember, that you're still young. That he's still young. And this is going to happen.

No matter how many arguments you've been in, it doesn't change the fact that in the middle of them you still get worried that he's going to leave. No amount of reassurance helps sometimes. But you have to get through it. You have to. Holding on to the hope that you guys will work your way through this will help you in the end.

Sooner or later, people argue. You disagree. Sometimes you yell, sometimes you whisper, it's still an argument nonetheless. Your cheeks will get red and your heart will race and you may be the maddest you've ever been, but you will get through it.

Excuse yourself, excuse him. Forgive him when he's wrong, forgive yourself when you are too. You both are still learning. Learning to love yourself and each other, and that's why people say love is an adventure, a learning experience. Something that cannot be replicated or learned until you experience it.

There's several different types of love, but a true love? There's going to be bumps, it's an uphill and downhill battle.

There's going to be amazing times, some of the most memorable times you've ever experienced, and some of the most miserable times you've lived through. But you will get through it.

Nobody ever promised that love would be easy, but everybody knows that it's worth it. Why everybody looks for it, there has to be a reason. And once you find it, you won't be able to imagine your life without it.
