“All happiness and sorrow have their roots in desire, I thought. Loving something is not easy, not when you have a mind that mucks it up all the time with your expectations of it. When you love a person, the expectations get even higher, and we have even more chances to muck it up. That’s why love doesn’t last too long for most people. The challenge of love isn’t looking past somebody’s flaws, it’s overcoming yours, that’s the only way you can see who they really are and love them for it.” — Trenton McKay Judson
