My father told me that if I should ever fall in love, that I love right. That if it is not the type that ignites fire and is wholeheartedly blissful, then it is not worth pursuing. He told me that my personality is bold because I've lived through many bitter seasons. And that the reason for my stubborn perseverance is because my hands are accustomed to having nothing. Most of my life has been lived through more darkness than light. We don’t tell people of our stories because very few like to read between the lines. And I agree that the man for me will be the one that understands my darkness because he’s lived through his own. Not everything in life ever turns out the way we plan it to. I just hope that whenever the time comes, I will love and be loved right.
