“I promise to love you even when you’re difficult. When you get irrationally mad, or scared of things beyond your control. When you couldn’t get out of your room and had to force yourself to move. When you’re so tired you couldn’t breathe, and you feel like crying. When you feel like someone is stealing your mind, and you don’t know where your life is going to go. I promise to be there through every salted tears, uneven broken pieces. I promise to love you no matter what. You’ll always have me, now and forever.”

— my promise to myself: i’ll always be there for you.
