“remember you already have an abundance of love, just not the romantic kind. This kind of love might not kiss you in the rain or propose marriage. But it will listen to you, inspire and restore you. It will hold you when you cry, celebrate when you’re happy andwhen you’re drunk. You have so much to gain and learn from this kind of love. You can carry it with you for ever. Keep it as close to you as you can.”
