“Joy, I realized, isn't so much a circumstance you find yourself in but a choice you make”
“All life isn't hearts and flowers. But life is just as much pain and mess as it is joy and order, too. I guess when you make yourself realize that you.. .start growing up - Boy's Life”
“Happiness is a choice you make, regardless of the circumstances.”
“Being in love isn't the only way of loving. I realized with all my being that if you loved somebody- it didn't matter who it was- and dedicated yourself to bringing joy to your loved one, you, too, would be redeemed.”
“You find peace not by rearranging the circumstances of your life, but by realizing who you are at the deepest level.”
“I wish I could change things for you, make it so this all doesn't have to hurt so much. But that's the point, isn't it? That one day we'll find that the pain we suffered was worth it.”
