“It is hard to be in the wrong relationship, and it is hard to be in the right one. It is hard to stay at a job you hate, and it is hard to pursue your dreams. It is hard to be at war with yourself, and it is hard to heal. It is hard to resist your impulses, and it is hard to be controlled by them. It is hard to stay as you are, and it is hard to be vulnerable, to risk, to leap, to embrace the unknown.

Everything is hard in some way, but you get to decide what you're willing to hurt for, what you're willing to try for, what you're willing to work for.

You get to choose your hard.”
