“There must be more to life than what I've been given." ~ from the song "Off-world Colonies," by Memoria.”

“You must live every day as if it counts, which means to love all of it. Never let a single one go by without noting the color of the sky, the song of the bird, the face of the one you love best. And don't let yourself get talked out of the things you really care about, don't put off what you want to be.”

“A little different from what it used to be is still a big change”

“Love and hurt.. are even loyal than lovers do.”

“Life's a riddle, child," he said lightly, "but if you can feel the bumps on the road, it means you're alive and in the game. And that is a good place to be.”

“I had come to learn pretty quickly that life has its highs and lows just like the ocean does and sometimes you just have to see how far they'll carry you.”

“I never thought I wanted to write. Never did I know I can either, until now.”
