Quotes by Cindy Vine (?)

“I have perfected the art of the fake smile. Inside your heart may be bruised and black, but outwardly you look bright and happy.”
― Cindy Vine, Not Telling

“Well you should care. About my past, I mean. Because who I am today is based on who I was, and what happened to me. You are in love with who you think I am, not the real me. Not the me who is broken inside.”
― Cindy Vine, Not Telling

“Wounds do eventually heal after a fashion, even emotional ones. What seems bad one day, is not quite as bad a year from now.”
