“It hurt because it mattered.” — John Green

Nothing that you do not sincerely care about can hurt you.

It’s why we get upset when our partner does something to betray us.

It’s why we get hurt badly when a close friend does something to upset us.

Those are people and relationships we care about.

So when something happens that’s isn’t in our favor; naturally, we get frustrated by the situation.

The next time you get upset over something, know it wouldn’t happen if you didn’t care.
