How do you know when it's time to let go?
When it's time to forget about all the good times and realize that they can't outweigh all the bad?
When it's time to accept that, no matter how much you love and adore someone, that it's not what either of you want and/or need?
When it's time to embrace that loneliness?
When it's time to see that hard work can't just make it all go away?
Love isn't always enough, is it?
Life will keep going.
You have to keep moving with it.
Trying to cling to something that won't work will only hold you back.
It's not a matter of selfishness.
Actually, trying to hold on is selfish, because it keeps the other person in something harmful.
We can't allow ourselves to get stuck in this stand-still.
We have to keep going.
Move forward, don't settle, never stop.
Author notes
It's looking like things are over for me and the one I love, and it's not because we don't love each other. It's just that we can't be together...
