Second Glance

Did you ever walk through a room that's packed with people, and feel so lonely you can hardly take the next step?

Love is not a because, it's a no matter what.

People work too hard to figure out the meaning of their lives. Why me, why now. The truth is, sometimes things don't happen to you for a reason. Sometimes it's just about being in the right place at the right time for someone else.

Heroes didn't leap tall buildings or stop bullets with an outstretched hand; they didn't wear boots and capes. They bled, and they bruised, and their superpowers were as simple as listening, or loving. Heroes were ordinary people who knew that even if their own lives were impossibly knotted, they could untangle someone else's. And maybe that one act could lead someone to rescue you right back.

Love meant jumping off a cliff and trusting that a certain person would be there to catch you at the bottom.
