I want to be remembered as the girl who always smiled, the one who could brighten up your day, even if she couldn&#039;t brighten her own<br /> <br /> I&#039;m only me. That&#039;s all I can be. No more, no less, don&#039;t second guess. I love, I live, I laugh, I cry. I&#039;ve wished sometimes that I could die. Some days I&#039;m funny others I&#039;m not, sometimes I&#039;m in overdrive and I can&#039;t stop. You may not like me, but that&#039;s okay because this is me and how I&#039;ll stay.<br /> <br /> &quot;Not so in other people&#039;s definitions maybe, but you act the way you are, because that is who you are.<br /> You are the only person who is you.<br /> You are unique, and everybody has flaws, but these flaws make them perfect.&quot;<br /> <br /> &ldquo;Well, I found out early on that I either laugh or cry. Since crying isn&rsquo;t all it&rsquo;s cracked up to be, I try to make laughter my priority.&rdquo;

&quot;It&#039;s impossible.&quot; said pride. &quot;It&#039;s risky.&quot; said experience. &quot;It&#039;s pointless.&quot; said reason. &quot;Give it a try.&quot; whispered the heart.
