And if you couldn't be loved, the next best thing was to be let alone.

L.m. Montgomery
And if you couldn't be loved, the next best thing...
And if you couldn't be loved, the next best thing...
And if you couldn't be loved, the next best thing...
And if you couldn't be loved, the next best thing...
About This Quote

This quote is about how we can’t always control our circumstances and we can’t always be loved. We cannot control what happens to us in life and when we cannot make someone love us, all we can do is let them be. Many people believe that if they were to let go of their dreams and settle for something less, they would still be happy. Instead, when you do not try to control your circumstances and instead just let them be, you have a greater chance of being happy.
