Love Quotes about Moving On
Moving on from an idyllic love life that has just crashed before your eyes like a deck of cards is never easy. It may seem impossible even. But you know what? The sun will shine again, the flowers will bloom again and the birds will sing again. The grief and pain will take time to pass. To help you get through them, here are some love quotes about moving on that will serve as inspiration, and give you the strength you need to finally let go and move on.
Zahir, in Arabic, means visible, present, incapable of going unnoticed.

Not every love story has a happy ending. Not everyone gets to be with the person they want to be with. Not every love is requited. Getting over someone is so much easier said than done. You want to scream your lungs out. You want to rip and break everything that reminds you of the one you love. You want to hurt yourself, you want to hurt others. You want to be left alone, to pick up the million pieces that your heart has broken into and try to put them back to make yourself whole again. Unnecessary sympathy and hollow reassurances annoy you. At such times, words that explicitly explain what will help you and what will not, are probably the only thing that will ring true to you. Here are some quotes that will help you see that after all the crying and sadness, there will always be hope for something better.
