“Happily ever after, or even just together ever after, is not cheesy,” Wren said. “It’s the noblest, like, the most courageous thing two people can shoot for.”
― Rainbow Rowell, Fangirl

recently, i have watched somewhere and this lesson somehow caught my attention. "in any relationship, what is important is your happiness. when you are happy, people who surround you will be happy too." i agree. it's not being selfish, it's being realistic. thing is, what does it take to make you happy?

sometimes it means feeling loved and loving in return - a two way relationship. but sometimes it also means to sacrifice, being happy when you know another person is happy because of that sacrifice. sa tagalog, martyr. so happiness per se is subjective. so whether happily ever after (even if not together) or even just together ever after (but not happy all the time) is your choice.
