Sometimes it takes certain things falling apart for better things to fall into place. Sometimes it takes losing what you’re settling for to remind you of what you truly deserve. Sometimes it takes the most uncomfortable paths to lead your life to the most beautiful place. I know it’s hard, but you’ll never see the purpose of the storm until you see the growth it produced. You’ll never see the purpose of someone leaving your life until you see what’s best for your life. You’ll never understand why you’re going through what you’re going through until you see the strength, the power, the growth that it built inside of you. I want you to understand this and believe this, Annie. Your current situation is not your final destination. This storm will eventually run out of rain. This struggle that seemed like it’s lasted.
