Today, I cried in my dad’s arms after I found out that my boyfriend/fiancé of four years, who I live with, had been sleeping with another woman behind my back. My dad held me in silence for several minutes until I stopped crying hysterically. “I can’t believe I just wasted four years of my life with him,” I said. “It wasn’t a waste,” my dad replied. “In life you will eventually realize that there is a purpose for everyone you meet. Some will test you, some will use you, and some will teach you. But most importantly, some will bring out the best in you. And this last group of people, although hard to find, are always worth the wait.” MMT

I neeeded to hear this one.

it could not be denied that the persons who come and go around us is the strong force that richens and splendides our lives.no matter what they bring,that is why life is so colouful and rich.so sum up the courage and go forward.

Thank you, i really needed to read this. I'm really sorry about what happened, but i'm sure you deserve much better.

This one made me cry because of the relationship between father and daughter. Most kids now a days aren't close enough with their parents to cry in front of them. Good advice, too.

This is exactly what I needed to hear today!
