Kristin HannahIf I have learned anything in this long life of mine, it is this: in love we find out who we want to be; in war we find out who we are.
About This Quote
We all want to be loved. If we don’t feel loved by the people we love, we may find ourselves in a situation where we do things that aren’t good for us. We may drink, we may gamble, we may even get in fights with others because of our unhappiness. If I can learn one thing in this life about love is that when you are in love, the only thing you are concerned with is being loved.
You don’t care if you win or lose. You don’t care if it hurts you or someone else. When you are in love, it is all about being loved.
