So no, love is not always easy. Life is going to be hard, and we are going to have to struggle. We are going to question our strength, and sometimes relationships will fall apart. We will feel all sorts of emotions throughout our journey, but it is what we do with those battles that makes us who we are destined to become. And then we take all these emotions and realize that no matter what, no matter where-- we all have something worth fighting for.
