"Sometimes you’re so blinded by your feelings for someone that it’s difficult to realize that they do not deserve your heart."

"The most astounding thing about Jesus is that he is brutally honest about his feelings yet absolutely submitted to the will of God."

"The most intimate thing we can do is to allow people we love most see us at our worst. At our lowest. At our weakest. True intimacy happens when nothing is perfect."

"You don’t know how to talk to people you don’t like. Don’t love, really. You can’t live in the world with such strong likes and dislikes."

"I realized that I wanted to tell you about it. I wanted to tell you that when I went for my daily walks, I would go to the spot where we used to watch the sun go down and then stay and stare at all the lights in the city. I wanted to tell you that when I moved back, I actually saw you that day and I wanted to come up to you and say hello, but you were with her and I was reminded of that pain you left me with. I wanted to tell you that I would see your sisters around and I missed the nights where we would stay in and all watch movies. I wanted to tell you how I thought the same thing, that if it had just been months later, a year later, it would be you in my life still. There were many things that I wanted to tell you, but it was too late now. I couldn’t tell you any of it because I had a separate life now, we were well past a time in my life when we could have fixed this all. But I could forgive you. I could let you know that I was okay."

"You make me nostalgic for a love that hasn’t even happened yet."
