I tried to change myself for you and be everything you liked to a point where I couldn't recognize even myself anymore i've spent all this time wondering where you've gone why...

&quot;The feeling of being &#039;okay&#039; does not imply that the person has risen above all their faults and emotional problems. It merely implies that they refuse to be paralyzed by them.&quot;

&quot;Hope is the worst of evils, for it prolongs the torments of man.&quot;<br /> &quot;You don&#039;t really understand human nature unless you know why a child on a merry-go-round will wave at his parents every time around -- and why his parents will always wave back.&quot;<br /> Life is a game, play it....Life is too precious, do not destroy it.&quot;<br /> &quot;Experience is a brutal teacher, but you learn. My God, do you learn.&quot;
