Something inspirational:

“Not everything is supposed to become something beautiful and long-lasting. Sometimes people come into your life to show you what is right and what is wrong, to show you who you can be, to teach you to love yourself, to make you feel better for a little while, or to just be someone to walk with at night and spill your life to. Not everyone is going to stay forever, and we still have to keep on going and thank them for what they’ve given us.”

EMERY ALLEN

Emery Allen's quote emphasises that even fleeting connections have value. Some people help us during tough times, offering comfort and companionship. Others challenge us, helping us realise what we want, and what we should avoid. Although their presence serves as a purpose – the flip side is that we come out better for knowing what those relationships are teaching us and whether we want those relationships to continue. Not everyone will be thankful for those relationships, they don't need to be.
