Love — real love — costs something.
Every relationship we value asks something of us.
Children ask for presence.
Siblings ask for a bridge.
Friends ask for patience.
Colleagues ask for grace.
Partners ask for understanding.
Love is not free —
but its price is always worth paying.
Because the places where we sacrifice THROUGH love,
are the same places we grow.
The same places we expand.
The same places where we become MORE
If you woke up carrying someone in your heart today because they’re no longer here…
That, too, is love.
