if you can&#039;t handle me at my worst,<br /> then you certainly don&#039;t deserve at my best!<br /> <br /> it is the events that shape our lives, <br /> but it is the choices we make that define us...<br /> <br /> life is not about finding yourself,<br /> life is about creating yourself

&quot;Even though you&#039;d hurt my feelings, I&#039;d still forgive you. Even if you don&#039;t love me, I&#039;d still reach my hand to you. Even if you&#039;re gone, I&#039;d still wait for you. Even if you break my heart, I&#039;d still say, I love you.&quot;
