I have learnt to empathize and let go, to bow and admit, to withstand and compromise. I have found peace with myself and answers within. I have not yet mastered those arts, but I am a B+ student. What I doubt I would ever learn is acceptance of the fact that when the people who mean the world to me are going through a heart tearing time, I do not have the power to walk that path instead of them. The mere fucking fact of it.
