"Temporary separation
is a part of the game.
After all, what is life
without a little pain?
And the sooner we realise this--

the better we will get at
sleeping during lonely nights;

the better we will get at
making it through the fist fights;

and the better we will get
at being alright,

because love isn't just about happiness,
or being perfectly comfortable.
It's about feelings alive in
every humanly way possible.

And if we're not ready for that,
then we're not ready to be loved.

And if we didn't feel broken,
then we didn't deserve to be loved."
