She didn’t need hope anymore because she knew the things you wanted weren’t necessarily the things that you needed. She knew that the things that were meant to be just happened. You couldn’t control them like she once thought.

About This Quote

The relationship between hope and disappointment is often misunderstood. First, it’s important to remember that hope isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Most people have hope for themselves and their relationships. Hope allows for an optimistic approach to life, which is certainly fine.

But, when hope is used as a crutch, it can become dangerous. This happens when people are expecting good things to happen but are unable to consider any bad outcomes that might happen. When this happens, there’s a loss of the ability to deal with the reality of life, which leads to disappointment.
