some ways will work and other ways we'll play.
But I know we all can't stay here forever,
so I want to write my words on the face of today.

Hey look at him and where he is these days.
When life is hard, you have to change.”
― Shannon Hoon

― Patrick Rothfuss, The Wise Man's Fear

“It takes a lot more Strength to be Kind, than to be hard hearted in a Hard World. To be Kind is to be Gracious and Tenderhearted. There are things that we cannot fix---but we can be Tenderhearted.”
