“Do not be ashamed of what your survival looks like.”
― Bianca Sparacino, The Strength In Our Scars

“It is easy to love someone when they are perfect, when they are soft and light, when they are filled with hope and happiness. But loving someone when they are wearing their flaws like an apology, when they are breaking down, or when they are carrying hurt within them—that is when it means the most. That is when you must show up for them.”
― Bianca Sparacino, The Strength In Our Scars

“Love will not save you. But it will hold your hand while you save yourself.”
― Bianca Sparacino, The Strength In Our Scars

“It took me a long time to realize that not everything in life is meant to be a beautiful story. Not every per-son we feel something deep and moving with is meant to make a home within us, is meant to be a forever. Sometimes, people come into our lives to teach us how to love; and sometimes, people come into our lives to teach us how not to love. How not to settle, how not to shrink ourselves ever again. Yes, sometimes people leave—but that’s okay, because their lessons always stay, and that is what matters. That is what remains.”
