People can surprise us in both good and bad ways from "summary" of Reminders of Him by Colleen Hoover
Life has a funny way of throwing curveballs at us when we least expect it. Sometimes, people can surprise us in ways that leave us in awe of their kindness, their generosity, and their capacity for love. It's in those moments that we are reminded of the beauty and goodness that exists in the world, despite all the darkness and pain. But then there are times when people surprise us in ways that shatter our beliefs, our trust, and our very sense of self. When someone we thought we knew so well turns out to be someone completely different, someone capable of hurting us in ways we never thought possible, it can be devastating. It can make us question everything we thought we knew about that person, and about ourselves. In these moments of shock and disbelief, it's easy to lose faith in the goodness of humanity. It's easy to become cynical, to close ourselves off from others in an attempt to protect ourselves from further harm. But in doing so, we risk missing out on the beauty and joy that comes from being open to the possibility of love and connection, even if it means risking getting hurt again. So, while it's true that people can surprise us in both good and bad ways, it's important to remember that it's all a part of the messy, complicated tapestry of life. We can't control how others choose to act, but we can control how we choose to respond. And sometimes, it's in those moments of vulnerability and uncertainty that we find our true strength and resilience. So let's embrace the surprises, both good and bad, and trust that everything happens for a reason, even if we can't see it in the moment.
