The Problem with Forever

by Jennifer L. Armentrout

They can think whatever they want, but you control how you feel about it.”

nothing lasted forever, but some things, some scars, ran too deep to ever fade away.

Maybe it was because she was the devil. The devil that spoke the truth.

And it was knowing that I could still be...still be afraid of everything, but not letting that fear stop me from living.

Forever was something we all took for granted, but the problem with forever was that it really didn’t exist.

I learned that those who are always helping others help themselves last.

My past was a part of me and it molded who I was today, but it was not the sum of who I was to become. It did not control me.
