Change is a risk. It forces us to step out of our comfort zone and break familiar patterns. In love, this is especially terrifying. We fear rejection, getting hurt again, or losing ourselves. It feels easier to stay where everything is familiar, even if there’s no spark in our eyes.

But here’s the truth: fear won’t disappear on its own. The only way past it is through it. The first step is to be honest with yourself about what you truly want. The second is to take action despite the anxiety. Love is always a leap into the unknown. But only by pushing past fear can you experience the kind of love that turns your world upside down.

Change is scary, but if you move toward it with an open heart, it will lead you to where you are truly happy.
