Sick days in April...

Who's sick? This kid. And just about EVERYONE around me. It's lovely right. It's even better that it's right during reviews and as testing is starting (please tell me you picked up the sarcasm and realized the inconvenience of this). But there isn't anything i can do but suck it up and sleep it off. Which i fully intend to do tomorrow. Anyways, i decided i might as well write a post or two, so here goes.


So i read this question online, and it asked if I agreed with this quote: "If you love her (or him), you'll let her go".

I thought about it, and really i don't have a definite opinion. I understand wanting to keep someone forever if i love them. Why would you give up someone you love? You give them up and you don't have them. And i can honestly say i am one of the biggest haters of losing people. Letting people go and losing them have caused so many problems for me. So i completely 100% see wanting to keep them and disagreeing with this quote.

HOWEVER. It's incredibly selfish to keep the people you love. Who are you to determine what THEY do with THEIR life? As much as you love them, is it really right to keep them here just for your own reasons? I don't think so. If you love someone then you want the best for them. You know they can excel, and you know they'll love whatever it is they're going to do. Therefor if you love them you'll let them go. Because when you love someone you don't care about what happens to yourself. All you care about is them, and that they'll be okay, and that they'll be happy. Their happiness is completely worth you're sadness. Plus, seeing them happy will make you happy too.

I also firmly believe (okay not firmly but i'm working on believing it because i know it's true) that if you love someone, and they love you too, then you won't ever lose them. They'll come back, you'll stay close, and things will be okay. If they love you, and you love them, then some distance won't change a thing.

**I feel like this sounds like it's just for romantic relationships, but it's not. It goes for every relationship.**

So my final answer?  I agree with the quote.


I don't know why the text is highlighted, i tried several times to take it off with no luck. Oh well, it is what it is(:
