Funny Story

by Emily Henry

Life isn’t a competition, and neither is love, but I’m still the loser.

The same universe that dispassionately takes things away can bring you things you weren’t imaginative enough to dream up.

You’re wonderful. You’re the reason for the word wonderful. It really shouldn’t be used for anything else. You make me want to see the best in everyone. You’re the person I want to be with when everything’s going wrong, instead of just wanting to skip over those times entirely. I love that you’re so present that you always forget to keep track of your phone, and I love that when you’re late, you never make excuses but you always have a good reason.
