Starting now, I promise to be
Not yours, not his, not hers,
Just me.

Starting now, I'll end the fight
I won't be waiting or hoping,
I'll just be alright.

Starting now, I'll stay on my feet
Because the sky is the limit and you've got me beat.

Favorite Quote:
Faith is like learning to walk; you have to fall at first, but don't stay down. When in doubt, don't stop believing.

Favorite Quote:
"Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind."
