"Sometimes the people we dream about don’t dream about us. Sometimes the people we could give up everything for don’t even lift a finger for us.

Sometimes they leave before we’re ready to let them go. Sometimes they find in us everything beautiful but they don’t find love.

The truth is, the people we love are not always right for us. We don’t always end up with them. We don’t always win their hearts no matter how hard we fight for their love.

They don’t always meet us half-way. They don’t always see what we see. They don’t give us the chance we deserve.

We’re not their dream and maybe that’s okay. Maybe that’s God’s way of telling us to dream bigger. That this dream is not right for us. That we’re living someone else’s dream and we need to wake up.

And that’s the irony of love. We could blindly fight for the wrong people. We could stubbornly cling to those who don’t want us. We could foolishly believe that we could turn unrequited love into forever.

We stay in the wrong dream until we turn it into a nightmare.
Sometimes the people we dream about don’t dream about us because they’re dreaming about other people and there’s nothing we can do to change that.

But one thing I know for sure is that we can always wake up from the wrong dream. It doesn’t have to be the reality we keep on living. It doesn’t have to be our story."
