I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together

How do you know if you've found someone to love?
When you see them, do you get butterflies?
Do they hold you in their arms when you cry?
The little things they do show they care,
And they're ALWAYS there.
They will listen and understand,
and maybe even hold your hand.
Tell you your hair smells like something crazy,
Tell you you're amazing,
And always leave you dazing.
Someone who tells you the truth and loves you just for you!
You'll know when they send your heart thumping...
And when they say you're pretty in anything.
They care if you're okay, and never go away.
That's how you know...

We all have people we care about, but how do we REALLY know how they feel about us??
