“Oh! The places you can go!”

One day, I'm going to be the girl who believes that love is not something fictional. I'm going to be the girl who won't be afraid to take a plunge into the unknown. I'm going to be the girl who doesn't let her independence get in the way of her looking for someone she can be vulnerable with, maybe not totally, but she'll try. One day, I'm going to let my heart take over my head, and maybe I'll realize that I've actually been missing out on a lot, or maybe I won't - but that won't matter, because what's important is I went out of my way to do something I would never have done if one day didn't come.
One day, I'm going to be ready to be hurt, and I'll be ready to open myself to someone outside myself.
One day, I'll be able to tell you that doing so - loving you - was the right thing. You'll think I'll have gone bonkers, but I won't take offence, because you've made me realize that it's perfectly fine to not pretend that I'm the strongest person in this world.
One day I'll realize that someone is willing to go out of his way for me, because he loves me. I'll realize that amidst the intricacies and complexities of life, things as genuine and as simple as love still exist.
One day I'll realize how much of my life I wasted by fearing love.
One day you'll hear me say I love you, too.
One day.
