for those who have lost someone in their lives, you know how hard it can be to live on without them. it can take days, months, or years to finally move on.
but just know that everything does get better in the end. and even if you don't think it's possible to live on without them, it is.
because people leave for a reason.
and sometimes that reason is for the best of things.
