In the blink of an eye, something happens by chance - when you least expect it - sets you on a course that you never planned, into a future you never imagined.

---

Loving someone and having them love you back is the most precious thing in the world.

---

What mattered most was knowing that love was mine to give, without strings or expectations.

---

I mean, if the relationship can't survive the long term, why on earth would it be worth my time and energy for the short term?

---

The past can be escaped only by embracing something better.

---

We're not the same people we were then. We've changed, we've grown.

---

You might not believe it...but you make the world a better place when you smile.

---

It happens to everyone as they grow up. You find out who you are and what you want, and then you realize that people you've known forever don't see things the way you do. So you keep the wonderful memories, but find yourself moving on.

---

I love you. I am who I am because of you. You are every reason, every hope, and every dream I've ever had, and no matter what happens to us in the future, everyday we are together is the greatest day of my life. I will always be yours.

---

Don't take my advice. Or anyone's advice. Trust yourself. For good or for bad, happy or unhappy, it's your life, and what you do with it has always been entirely up to you.
