We can't delete dark times, but we can stop and reflect. We can't re-wind to memories or fast-forward to the future, but we can play in the present.

&quot;It&#039;s the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance. It is the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance. It is the one who won&#039;t be taken who cannot seem to give. And the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live.&quot;<br /> <br /> ~ Bette Midler

Revenge is not a dish best served cold. Revenge is a dish best served like a Vegas buffet, never ending and with style.

From me: &quot;The Point of writing isn&#039;t so others can understand what&#039;s going on in your mind. It&#039;s so you can understand what&#039;s going on inside yourself.&quot;<br /> <br /> By me: &quot;Who needs you when I have these yellow lines on this road?&quot;
