DAY 122 OF 365 Romanticise the effort. the gentle kind, the kind that doesn't shout for attention. the way you try, even when you're tired, the way you care, even when it's not returned the same. not the outcome, not the applause, not the highlight reel, the love you pour in, the moments no one else sees, the hope it takes to believe. romanticise trying again when no one is watching, the way you choose softness anyway, the way you keep going without needing to be seen. that's where the real love lives, in the effort, in you always.
