One of the hardest pills I had swallowed this year was learning that no matter how good you could be to someone, no matter how much you love them, they can and will turn their back on you and there's nothing you can do but accept it and move on.
You are someone's favorite person. The way you laugh. Your kind heart. Your sense of humor. The way you make problems melt away with a loving hug or a shoulder to cry on. And it's tough to remember that sometimes. But it is true. You are appreciated for simply being you.
