A lot of people do have tragic childhoods. But you know what? Get over it.
You can't change what you don't acknowledge.
This is no dress rehearsal.
Sometimes you just got to give yourself what you wish someone else would give you.
Take the high road, there's a lot less traffic up there.
At the end of the day, whether or not those people are comfortable with how you're living your life doesn't matter. What matters is whether you're comfortable with it.
