...Being lovesick hurts. But it becomes unbearable when you realize that it hurts so much because you never really loved y o u r s e l f. Pain is not a competition. Everyone deals with pain differently. But at the end of the day, we all just want one thing: to be loved. The thoughts in this book describe a journey from being abandoned, sadness, anger, but also happiness, hope and the most important form of love: self-love. These thoughts are for all those who have been heartbroken (or are heartbroken) but are choosing hope and joy, and choosing life.
