Favorite Quote:
&quot;Whatever you are feeling right now, there is a mathematical certainty someone is feeling the exact same way. This isn&#039;t to say you aren&#039;t special. This is to say thank God you aren&#039;t special.&quot;<br /> - Neil Hilborn

I once met a girl who wrote suicide notes
Unpublished, yet well written; hidden deep in her throat
Were the cries from lies that turned dark her bright eyes
And why I despise those now darkened eyes,
I cannot say, relay, relate, or reply
Only pretend that the end didn’t happen and lie
About the dead night time message that whispered, “Goodbye.”

&quot;You&#039;ve got to learn to move on, because life will move on. If you don&#039;t move on, you&#039;ll just end up in over your head.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Never regret anything because at the time, it was exactly what you wanted.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;We accept the love we think we deserve.&quot;
