I think if you're going to show a true representation of any one life, it can't be about any one thing. I try to see more of a full picture, with the romance just a single part.

But you only get so many do-overs in this life, so many chances to, if not change your past, alter your future.

You just had to know where to look.

Once, I was easy. Now, I was choosy. See? Big difference.

I am coming to terms with the fact that loving someone requires a leap of faith, and that a soft landing is never guaranteed.

I didn't want to talk about what happened, so it seemed safest not to talk at all.

I reached up with my finger and traced the scar over my eyebrow, remembering when that was the greatest hurt I'd ever known.
