There is always one thing that will be compromised when you make a very difficult decision.
Otherwise, where's the difficulty in that?
But you know, there is always a way to iron out the wrinkly parts of your life.
Time is the greatest steam iron in the world and beyond.
That's why healing is very much associated with it.
And of course if you choose to make use of that time wisely, you do your best to make things better, and cross your fingers that one morning the agony is gone and you're ready to really forego the what-ifs.
As far as you're concerned, the decision that you have made is right.
It is right to you, because you think it is the best thing for you.
And so the other choice that didn't make the cut has to fade away in your mind.
Of course the memories are still there.
Memories are good. They make me smile.
The songs, the thoughts, the journal entries and the other crazy details.
So yeah. Time, memories. We're good.

I really tried my best not to make this sound sappy.
Okay.
