Because love is so much BIGGER than the hardships you go through.

Step back for a minute and think about your relationship. What was it like in the beginning? When everything they said was beautiful and romantic, and you couldn't find a SINGLE thing wrong with them.

It was magical. It was special. And that person is still there.

Maybe the magic disappears after a while (too much time with ANYONE will do that), but that doesn't change the fact that the person you fell for is still the person you have!
