&ldquo;Maybe you can afford to wait. Maybe for you there&#039;s a tomorrow.

So much time you can waste it.<br /> But for some of us there&#039;s only today. And the truth is, you never really know.&rdquo; <br /> ― Lauren Oliver, Before I Fall

&quot;Pain is only temporary.&quot; <br /> <br /> &quot;In three words I can sum up everything I&#039;ve learned about life: it goes on.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Believe that life is worth living and your belief will help create the fact. &quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Don&#039;t go through life. Grow through life.&quot;
