Every time I used to hear the sentence "I am afraid", I used to think that the person wasn't strong, but now I see how wrong I used to be. The person is being strong acknowledging that they need help and that we could even try, but we'll never be independent. But that's how I felt. I didn't need anyone to make me happy, I could bring it on my own. But I was afraid. Afraid of believing that I really did need someone to be happy, afraid of getting close to people, thinking that they would just leave my life. But I learned that each person that stays or leaves our lives are there for a purpose that is to learn each time that we have a time for everything. But each moment of our lives we grow stronger and stronger. We will never be independent, but dependence doesn't mean we aren't strong. Every heartbreak, every love, every happiness, every sadness is there to show us that we do matter.
