there comes a point when you need to stop seeing things for how you’d like them to be and start seeing things for how they actually are. after that comes the point when you need to either pretend as though things are fine or make the conscious decision to react accordingly.

"Tell me, I’ll forget
Show me, I’ll remember
Involve me, I’ll understand"
