“Sometimes things don't work out the way we want them to. Life was full of truths that don't play out in romance novels. Sometimes we don't get our happily ever after.”

“Sometimes when life hits you with too much, it makes you stronger and you learn from it. I know where I want to go while some of my friends don't. Life has brought me maturity. I make my decisions based on who I don't want to be, rather than whom everyone else wants me to be. I always want to be better. It took me time to see this, but it's true.”

“Life can be unfair and unkind, but sometimes we just have to let go and let fate take over.”

“We all make mistakes and do things we wish we could take back, but it is what we do after that truly matters…and I like your after.”

“Sometimes, when your back's against the wall, you can do things that you didn't know were possible.”

“Life's hard and when you know there are ways to drown it out, it's hard to stay on the right path. It's a constant struggle. For a long time, I did it by myself.”

“Sometimes, things don't work out the way we want them to.”
