The Guiding Star

Every sorrow is an adjustment on the path to joy

You don’t negate the process just because there was no final result.

Every moment of joy and sorrow is an adjustment on the path to happiness.

The increasingly clear image of happiness in your heart is the guiding star for us all.

You enjoy the process and embrace the outcome. Even if it’s not the same person in the end, it is still someone you deeply loved.

Just because you didn’t reap the rewards here doesn’t mean you won’t reap them elsewhere.

It was a gift to meet you—the one I deeply loved. You cannot hate those you once cherished, because what you ultimately need to learn is love, not hate.

I once loved you very much, but now I understand even more the importance of loving myself.

I once couldn't bear to let go of that happiness, but now I cherish the happiness that awaits me ahead.

Thank you for reading!
