About This Quote
When something seems wrong in your life, the only way to have resolution with it is to let it go. Trying to make it right keeps it wrong. If you are trying to make something right, it will never be right. That is the way of things, they are never going to be perfect, so why try to change them? Instead of trying to make them fit into our perfect world, we should just let things be as they are.
