I have come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element. It is my personal approach that creates the climate. It is my daily mood that makes the weather. I possess tremendous power to make life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration, I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis is escalated or de-escalated, and a person is humanized or de-humanized. If we treat people as they are, we make them worse. If we treat people as they ought to be, we help them become what they are capable of becoming.

Sometimes pain becomes such a huge part of your life that you expect it to always be there,because you can’t remember a time in your life when it wasn’t. But then one day you feel something else, something that feels wrong, only because it’s so unfamiliar. And in that moment you realize you’re happy.

Halo (Beyonce) meets Love Story (Taylor Swift) - Piano Cello Duet

Halo - Beyonce

Every rule I had you breakin’, It’s the risk that I’m takin’

And no matter what, no matter how hard it’s going to be, no matter how long it takes, I will be happy again. I will smile, I will laugh, I certainly will not cry. I refuse to continue crying over something as trivial as a boy. Especially over someone as silly as you. I will not let you get to me any longer. I will not allow myself to feel this way anymore, I refuse to let you hurt me any further. You will get what is coming to you. And when that happens, when you fall to the floor, when you reach out to me, just know I won’t be there. I won’t catch you. I won’t tell you it’s going to be all right. I won’t be there. Because you never were. I will not care for you; because you never did.

I know, I shouldn’t care about you if you don’t care about me, or think about you when I know you’re not thinking of me. But I can’t help it. I do good things without expecting a lot in return, and I think it is my biggest weakness.
Sometimes it takes being away from someone for a while to realize how much you really need them in your life.
I don’t know what I expected. I should have known it was going to end this way. Maybe I was hoping you’d be different, or maybe a change. But of course it didn’t. I expected too much outta someone who would give me so little.

I know it’s hard, but sometimes in the end, you have to accept that you did all you could and it just wasn’t enough.
