About This Quote

I love today, it is a sacred time. This quote is especially poignant in the case of people who have experienced domestic violence and sexual abuse. When you've been abused, you often think that the only way to stay safe is to avoid all forms of happiness, such as love and joy. You can't risk being hurt again.

But this quote reminds you that it is possible to be happy despite your past experiences. It reminds you that it’s okay to be in love with someone and share a happy life with someone. It doesn’t matter what has happened in the past, you can fall in love again and be happy with someone new.
