Better to be the one who smiled than the one who didn't smile back

“be the better person. Learn when it’s time to walk away. Don’t hold grudges. Don’t go to sleep with a foul heart.” Of course, it is easier said than done but you’ve got to give these things a try. And I know it sounds ridiculous. I know, you know what you’re supposed to do, think and feel. Well, of course you know but you don’t follow it, and still, you don’t know why. The things is, love, I don’t know why you cause yourself so much pain. I don’t know why you cling to the things that break you the most. I guess, it must be a human thing because when we see danger we run toward it as fast as we can. We collide toward the things that hurt us and we don’t give a damn if we survive. We don’t give a damn of the consequences. Because pain is inevitable, of course, we all know this, and still, we have to find it within ourselves to be kind to the things that break us. We have to grow in places that hurt us the most and find wholeness in all things that shatter.
