“So often we try to make other people feel better by minimizing their pain, by telling them that it will get better (which it will) or that there are worse things in the world (which there are). But that’s not what I actually needed. What I actually needed was for someone to tell me that it hurt because it mattered. I have found this very useful to think about over the years, and I find that it is a lot easier and more bearable to be sad when you aren’t constantly berating yourself for being sad.

“When God knows you’re ready for the responsibility of commitment, he’ll reveal the right person under the right circumstances. Wait patiently, don’t waste your time searching and wishing. Grow and be ready. And you’ll see, God will give you a love story far better than you could ever dream of.

Don’t think you don’t deserve to be happy. There is someone out there who will make you happy and who YOU will make happy like no one else can!
