Maybe this chapter of your life isn't here to break you. Maybe it's here to teach you how strong you really are. How much you can survive. How much you can rebuild. And how beautiful your life can become once you stop settling for things that hurt your soul.
Normalize not forcing your importance in someone's life. Let people do what they want so you can see what they'd rather do. If someone doesn't see the value in having you by their side, don’t try to convince them.
