About This Quote
The idea that you should love something and set it free is a very common idea. When someone hears this they often laugh because it sounds like something that only happens to the poor. However, the idea that you can set your loved one free, but then be surprised when it comes back with herpes is true. The idea of letting go of your loved ones is often hard.
It’s tough to let go especially if they work for you or are your best friend. You want them to be happy and healthy so how can you do this? The idea of letting go is not always easy but after all, if they come back with herpes, I’m sure you can forgive them.
