“Too often we don't realize what we have until it's gone. Too often we're too stubborn to say, 'Sorry, I was wrong.' Too often it seems we hurt the ones closest to our hearts, and we let the most foolish things tear us apart, The person who really loves you sees what a mess you can be, how moody you can get, and how hard you are to handle. But still wants you in their life”
