"A person is never as quiet or unrestrained as they seem. Or as good, as bad, as vulnerable, as strong, or as sweet. We are thickly layered, page by page, behind simple covers. And love - it is not the book itself, but the binding. It can either rip us apart or hold us together."
"It's amazing, really, how much pain the human heart can take," -Nora Roberts
And I couldn't agree more. From time to time we humans face obstacles and challenges that makes us think it takes away the best of us, but in fact it makes us shine brighter than we ever had been when we were 'happier'. Every setback that gets you down, every defeat, every loss, every painful issue, makes you stronger, because the very fact that each day you still wake up and face the day, just goes to show that you're still determined to live and move one day at a time.
Which brings to me my very own issues and how much longer I'm determined to let myself be this way. =/ Always easier said than done, isn't it.
