After a while, the hurt hurts less. You start to see reason and understand why they did what they did, realizing it takes two hands to clap. You learn that not everyone you meet will stay in your life forever; sometimes, they are just passing characters in a chapter of your book. They're there to teach you lessons, help you experience different emotions, and encourage you to grow, maybe even to show you how to love yourself better and find your worth.

Some of these characters will be difficult to replace when their time in your life comes to an end. But it's important to learn and recognize the necessity of letting them go, even if you don’t want to.
