No man for any considerable period can wear one face to himself and another to the multitude, without finally getting bewildered as to which may be the true.
– Nathaniel Hawthorne, The Scarlet Letter
“The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own. No apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on, or blame. The gift is yours – it is an amazing journey – and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.”
~Bob Moawad
I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they’re right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.
~Marilyn Monroe
