Or don't.

Whatever comes, let it come. Whatever stays, let it stay. Whatever goes, let it go.

I let it go. It’s like swimming against the current. It exhausts you. After a while, whoever you are, you just have to let go, and the tide# brings you home. - Joanne Harris

Forever doesn’t seem so long when spending it with you. - Anonymous

“You become. It takes a long time. That’s why it doesn’t happen often to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in your joints and very shabby. But these things don’t matter at all, because once you are Real you can’t be ugly, except to people who don’t understand.” ~ Margery Williams, The Velveteen Rabbit

Accept that not everyone will understand you, that every soul has its own equation. While you may be little more than senseless gibberish to some, others will need only a single look to get a grasp of who you are. Never dull, dumb down, or adjust yourself to fit somewhere you don't belong. - #BeauTaplin

Tears are handy for washing away troubling and sad feelings. But when you grow up, you'll learn that there are things so sad they can never be washed away by tears. That there are painful memories that should never be washed away. People who are truly strong laugh when they want to cry. They endure all of the pain and sorrow while laughing with everybody else. - Obi Hajime
