“why are you going to give him a second chance, if there’s so many others waiting for their first?” EXACTLY!!!!! melanie’s family didn’t hold back one bit & i fear she needed this
"for you, i would" is such a gentle & sweet love language. like, no, maybe i wouldn't usually do this, but i would love to do it if it would make you happy.
actually your community IS coming to save you, people are going to show up for you, love is going to find you, strangers are going to be like angels, the world conspires for your highest good
