Love is not perfection. In fact, it is everything but.

I need you.

I want to tell you I love you, but I won’t.

But the beauty about freefall, is in that moment, you find your wings.

Because weakness is like anything in this life – fleeting.

For hurting you. You haven’t been easy on this body, this brain, this soul.

You are loved, even when you do not love Him. Loved, even when you feel you are alone and forgotten. Loved, even, and especially when you are broken.

Make an uber-cute relationship time capsule to forever remember this day.

You’re analyzing hypothetical situations.

Today may be the hardest day you’ve ever gone through – but today is temporary.

I hope you become the light I see in you – the light that brightens rooms, lifts spirits, warms hearts. The light that has been inside you all this time.

Stop apologizing for the person you are.

Stop worrying about when and where and how you’ll find your person. Stop feeling like you’re running out of time. Stop comparing your journey to everyone else’s and be happy where you are, right now.

This is for the women who live and love boldly, who inspire us, build us, define us, change us.

I just want to be an imperfect, shining mess of God’s love.

We were infinite, tiny moments of time—and we became love. But our time ran out.

Maybe it’s a little selfish, but I want to be the reason you smile.

I don’t want to be the one you use to pretend you’re not still missing her.
