pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can’t give up because if you give
up, you’ll never find your soulmate. You’ll never find that half who makes you whole and that
goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn’t mean you’re gonna fail at everything.
Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don’t, then
who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep
smiling.“

because to you, that person’s opinion symbolized the opinion of the whole world, of God.“
