Love, I've come to understand, is more than three words mumbled before bedtime.

Being around someone who accepts and supports you will remind you to accept and support yourself.

Why did you come here? To find you.

Love doesn't mean anything if you're not willing to make a commitment, and you have to think not only about what you want, but about what he wants. Not just now, but in the future.

People come, people go – they’ll drift in and out of your life, almost like characters in a favorite book. When you finally close the cover, the characters have told their story and you start up again with another book, complete with new characters and adventures. Then you find yourself focusing on the new ones, not the ones from the past.

I consider myself foremost a novelist with the intent of crafting stories that people will remember.

If you're a bird... I'm a bird.
