Absence

According to Lord Byron, absence is the common cure for love. I guess that is pretty true. You can love someone from afar, but you can't be in love with them. People are meant to be in relationships, and relationships imply a presence in one another's life. The best part of being with someone is being there for each other. Without that, what is the point?

No one can have everything. That is why we have to decide what is most important to us and pursue those things, with passion and persistence. Be there for the people that are important to you. Make no excuses.
