Always rise. If I could tell you anything, to save you the time and the lessons in this life, I would tell you to never let anything that happens turn you bitter. Don't let the pain of something that was out of your hands turn you cold. Love, stay soft, as hard as that is sometimes, try. Try with all of your heart to stay tender. I know there's a lot of things that hurt, take us to our knees and threaten our hearts. Let it go. You can't change it, but you can choose to not let it change you. Don't let the pain define you. You are bigger than that. I hope you know, you are never how someone makes you feel. Let it hurt, then let it heal, but don't linger there. Remember who you are and rise.
