Hate Notes

by Vi Keeland

“When God was making the mold for good-looking men, he asked one of his angels what else he should add to make a man more attractive in her eyes. The angel didn’t want to be disrespectful by using foul language, so she simply said, ‘Give him a big stick.’ Unfortunately, the added piece was put on backward, and now all good-looking men are born with a large stick up their tuchus.”

But you need to figure out how to love the life that you have, while you work on the life that you want.

You can only find true happiness within yourself, not inside of other people, no matter how much you care about them. Make yourself happy, and the rest will come. I promise.”

The two of you fight like an old married couple, flirt like you’re in high school, and confide in each other like you’re lifelong best friends.

Despite how you got here . . . you came into my world and breathed life into it when I really needed it.”

“I think it’s better to spend years treasuring a memory that might hurt sometimes than to never make one at all.”

True love was also about forgiveness.
