Final Thoughts
If any of these quotes made your heart pause, that’s okay.
Being blind in love doesn’t make you weak. It makes you human. We’ve all been there, loving too much, hoping too hard, holding on too long.
But the moment you start seeing things for what they are, not what you wish they were, that’s when you start finding your way back to yourself.
Love is beautiful. But real love doesn’t need you to close your eyes.
