"Loving someone is standing precariously on the edge of the building, ready to jump. It is lying in a flooded bathtub, holding your breath until your lungs give out, and driving too fast on a winding road at 4am in the morning, with no destination.
But sometimes, loving someone is taking a step back from that ledge because someone said, "Don't". Or pushing yourself out of the water and taking in deep breaths of air after hearing your daughter's laughter down the hall. And maybe loving someone means stepping on the brake before the crash because you realize that while one person may not love you, someone else does.
Loving someone can kill you, or it can make your life worth living."
