Then she said, Good and bad things come from the universe holding hands. Wait for the good to come.”

“Maybe love shouldn’t be built on a foundation of compromises, but maybe it can’t exist without them either.

No matter where we go, our love will stretch out to hold us, and that makes me feel like … like everything will be okay.”
