my entire life i’ve met people that tried to change me. people who want to make me into something i’m not. even try to revert me back to something i once was, something they can remember. but this is something that’s been on my mind for awhile now… if you plan on changing a person, why did you choose them in the first place? you can’t rebuild a person. you can’t turn them into one of your creations. you either love them as they are or you don’t love them at all. if you’re looking for something you can mold yourself, that’s not love. that’s power. in love, you don’t force changes on another person, you let them change for you, with you, and because of you.
