I am sorry: for piercing my ears when you told me not and leaving my room an endless junkyard, for being a whiny brat even when you are trying to be kind, for lashing out on you...

Be who you are. Don&#039;t be anything less.<br /> Strength isn&#039;t just measured by how much pain you can take.

Favorite Quote:
&quot;I think that most of us, anyway, read these stories that we know are not &quot;true&quot; because we&#039;re hungry for another kind of truth: the mythic truth about human nature in general, the particular truth about those life-communities that define our own identity, and the most specific truth of all: our own self-story. Fiction, because it is not about someone who lived in the real world, always has the possibility of being about oneself. &quot;<br /> &mdash; Orson Scott Card
