journal of love

People don’t keep journals for themselves. They keep them for other people, like a secret they don’t want to tell, but they want everyone to know.

It’s not love that hurts. It’s the infatuation with what we so blindly accept as love that hurts. True love should never have to hurt.

Sometimes you have to test someone. Not because you don’t trust them, but to see how much they’ll sacrifice for you. And sometimes you have to let them go, not because you suddenly stopped loving them, but to see if they love you enough to come back.
