There are moments in life, and they happen so infrequently that they tend to really stand out, when life hands you the gift of perspective. Sometimes, we forget to show our appreciation. Sometimes, we get our priorities mixed up. And, sometimes, we forget how far we’ve come. But life always has a way of nudging you to remind you about these important things.

Sometimes, you just have to reassure the ones you love in precise language that you'll always be there. Sometimes words are enough.

There's a little blackness inside all of us.

Family is not always the people with whom you share DNA. Sometimes, family is the person who fights the hardest for your happiness.

It's not our mistakes that define us. It's the lessons we learn that show our true character.

Life has shown me all too often that there is no rhyme or reason to the cruelty inflicted upon humanity.
