“But who can say what's best? That's why you need to grab whatever chance you have of happiness where you find it, and not worry about other people too much.

“It’s okay that you have flaws. How could our lives be as clean and white as a blank sheet of paper?

And shout out loud to your struggling self, I love you so much”
