After a while, you learn
the subtle difference
between holding a
hand and chaining a
soul. You learn that 
love doesn't mean 
leaving and company
doesn't mean security.
You begin to learn
that kisses aren't
contracts and presents
aren't promises. You
begin to accept your
defeats with your head
up and your eyes open;
with the grace of an
adult, not the grief of
a child. You learn to
build all your roads
on today because
tomorrow's ground is
too uncertain for plans.
After a while, you
learn that even 
sunshine burns if  you
get too much. So
plant your own garden
and decorate your
own soul instead of
waiting for someone to
bring you flowers.
You learn that you
really can endure, that
you really are strong,
and that you really do
have worth. You learn
with every goodbye,
there's a hello.
