&quot;Never give up on something you can&#039;t go a day without thinking about it.&quot;<br /> &quot;Being happy doesn&#039;t mean everything is perfect. It means you&#039;ve decided to see beyond the imperfections.&quot;

The worse and fortunate times
Make up our lives
With many bumpy paths entwined
But still it's a worthy prize.

For they're there
For a reason
To teach you a fair
Worthwhile lesson

It proves the imperfection of life
You can either be forgiven or revenge
It awakens your senses and makes you realize you're alive
You can take a minute or years to overcome this rocky mountain

So, learn from your mistakes
But in-between, just give yourself some time and a break.

&quot;You know you&rsquo;re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is &ndash; wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you&rsquo;re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself.&quot;
