People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that's bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they're afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they're wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. It's all in how you carry it.

I'm a human being and I fall in love and sometimes I don't have control of every situation.

When you hold somebody, you gotta hold them like it's the last minute of your life.

If you cry when you're in love, it sure ain't no disgrace.

Your feelings so are important to write down, to capture, and to remember because today you're heartbroken, but tomorrow you'll be in love again.

Don't worry. You may think you'll never get over it. But you also thought it would last forever.
