we're going to be okay

"people get stuck in moments. hearts break and don't

fix easy. love is nothing easy. it is not cheap. it is the

greatest thing that happens on this planet, and so it

comes priced as gold. one of my best friends used to

sing the words "love is war". there is the fight for holding

on. and the fight for letting go. the hardest thing i have

ever experienced is the learning which and when. but i

still say it's worth it, that love is real and possible. there are

things worth fighting for, and love is at the top of the list."

growing up is never easy.
you hold on to things that were.
you wonder what's to come.
 but that night, i think we knew it was time to let go of what had been,
 and look ahead to what would be.
other days. new days. days to come.
the thing is, we didn't have to hate each other for getting older.
we just had to forgive ourselves for growing up.
-- the wonder years --

even after all this time, the sun never tells the earth “you owe me”. look what happens with a love like that: it lights up the whole sky.
