Laugh your heart out. Dance in the rain. Cherish the morning. Ignore the pain. Live, Laugh, Love. Forgive and Forget. Life&#039;s too short to be living with regrets.<br /> Never interrupt someone doing what you said couldn&#039;t be done. Amelia Earhart

People were created to be loved. Things were created to be used. The reason the world is in chaos is because things are being loved and people are being used. By: Anonymous
