Hatred paralyzes life; love releases it.
Hatred confuses life; love harmonizes it.
Hatred darkens life; love illuminates it.
----Martin Luther King Jr.
I feel like this was the right move. People feel something for others and it can't always last forever. All you can do is hope that your friendship was strong enough to stay close. He was a great guy and I'm glad I can still keep him in my life. I feel blessed to not be burdened with loss. : )
