the beauty of gray

nothing is really ever black and white, as much as we may wish for it to be that way. the beauty is in the varying shades and depths of gray, isn't it?

ND has been a part of my life, a very huge part of my life, for over three years now, but I've recently realized that in letting certain things (people) in life go, it makes way for new and important experiences. letting ND go is something that may occur in the near future (again), but this time, I realize that it isn't cut and dry. it will always be a part of me. and I'm not leaving this world, though my role may change slightly. letting something or someone go does not change what they/it meant to you, how they/it contributed to who you are today. the bad or hurtful moments can be set aside, though not forgotten, and the positive moments can live on as memories to be grateful for. always grateful. xo
