How would you know?

What does it mean to say you’re over to somebody you once loved? Is it the idea to just wake up one day and never think of them again? Are you supposed to lose all your love and care for them? Are they never supposed to make daily visits into your head and heart, only to turn them into an abandoned space in our souls? This is what I thought, and this is why I failed. Every time. But one day, when you are ready, you will wake up to find that every painful sadness in your heart has been replaced with freeing acceptance. Those memories that once made you bitter to the core will make you sit back and smile. The hate and anger you may have harbored will dissipate into thankfulness. Thankful that those memories existed and they were real. Don’t ever let anybody tell you that to be ‘over someone’ is not to care anymore, because if that’s the case, it’ll never happen, or you never cared to begin with. Be happy with how far you've come and have faith in how much further you will go. Every single person we meet in our lives will stay with us in our journey through life. FOREVER. We must make those memories light and beautiful. Keep the love. Remember what it taught you. Remember how it made you feel. Lace up those shoes and walk into our awaiting and amazing futures.
