I finally understood what true love meant...love meant that you care for another person's happiness more than your own, no matter how painful the choices you face might be.

Do not judge the way i show my feelings. It's weird, it's different, but it's true.

Yet I have come to believe that while the past is unchangeable, our perceptions of is are malleable.

The pieces all fit together. Yet everything was falling apart.

I know that somehow, every step I took since the moment I could walk was a step towards finding you.

A woman shaking in fear from demons in her mind, and the old man who loves her more deeply than life itself, crying softly in the corner, his face in his hands.

I love you, Katie. You might not be ready to say those words now, and maybe you'll never be able to say them, but that doesn't change how I feel about you.
