What no one ever tells you is that you don't have to follow a conventional path. You don't have to live a life that other people expect you to. You are allowed to make the daring decisions you dream about - the ones that stir your soul and ignite your spirit.  - Unknown

Maybe you have to know the darkness before you can appreciate the light. - Madeleine L'Engle

It’s no use going back to yesterday because I was a different person then. - Unknown

Why are we so afraid? We make it worse when we don't bleed...
Sometimes I cannot forgive And these days, mercy cuts so deep
If the world was how it should be, maybe I could get some sleep
... Sometimes I can close my eyes,
And all the fear that keeps me silent, falls below my heavy breathing,
What makes me so badly bent? 
We all have a chance to murder. We all feel the need for wonder
We still want to be reminded that the pain is worth the thunder.
Sometimes when I lose my grip, I wonder what to make of heaven... 
- 'Oh my God' Jars of Clay
