There was a time when our paths ran side by side, when love, however brief or lasting, was something we shared. That time was real, and it mattered. Love always does. If life has taught me anything, it is that love comes in many forms, and it never truly leaves us. It changes, softens, deepens, and sometimes drifts into memory, but it remains part of who we are. I hope that wherever life has taken you, love finds you in ways both familiar and unexpected. That you welcome it with an open heart, whether it arrives gently or all at once, and that it fills your days with warmth and wonder. There are no hard feelings, only gratitude for what was, for what we learned, and for the moments that shaped us. We were meant to be part of each other’s stories, if only for a chapter. And what a gift that is. May love continue to surprise you. May it remind you of all the ways you are capable of giving and receiving it. And may you always find what you need, even in the places you least expect.
