ITS OKAY. ITS OKAY TO WANT SOMEONE YOU CANT HAVE. ITS OKAY…
“ITS OKAY. ITS OKAY TO WANT SOMEONE YOU CANT HAVE. ITS OKAY TO KEEP FRIENDSHIPS WHEN YOU DONT WANT THEM, OR WANT SOMETHING MORE. ITS OKAY TO CRY WHEN YOU'RE HURT, & ITS OKAY TO STAY MAD AT SOMEONE WHO HURT YOU. BELIEVE IT OR NOT, ITS a l w a y s . g o n n a . b e . ok . THATS JUST HOW IT WORKS. SOMETIMES,THINGS DONT ALWAYS WORK OUT THE WAY YOU WANT THEM TO, & A LOT OF TIMES, IT SEEMS LIKE THEY NEVER WILL. BUT ITS OKAY, THATS HOW LIFES SUPPOSE TO GO. ITS ALL ABOUT LEARNING HOW TO DEAL WITH THE BUMPY PARTS IN THE ROAD & WAITING TIL THEY'RE SMOOTH AGAIN. ITS ALL ABOUT FORGIVING & FORGETTING. ITS ALL ABOUT WAITING & WISHING. THATS JUST HOW LIFE IS.”
