"To me fearless is not the absence of fear
It's not being completely
unafraid. To me, fearless is haveing fears. fearless is having
doubts. Lots of them. To me, fearless is living in spite of those
things that scare you to death. fearless is falling madly in love
again, getting back up and fighting for what you want over and
over again... even though every time you've tried before, you've
lost. It's fearless to have faith that someday things will
change. I think it's fearless to fall for your best friend,
even though he's in love with someone else. And when someone
apologizes to you enough times for things they'll never stop
doing, I think it's fearless to stop believing them. It's
fearless to say "you're not sorry", and walk away. I
think loving someone despite what peple think is fearless. I
think allowing yourself to cry on the bathroom floor is fearless.
Letting go is fearless. Then, moving on and being alright...
That's fearless too. But no matter what love throws at you, you
have to believe in it. You have to believe in love stories and
prince charmings and happily ever after. That's why I write these
songs. Because I think love is fearless."
— Taylor Swift
