"After a while you learn that love doesn't mean leaning, that kisses aren't contracts and presents aren't promises. And you begin to accept defeats with your head UP and your eyes open... with the grace of a woman not the grief of a child. "So you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers... and you learn that you CAN endure, and that YOU really are strong and you really DO have worth, and that with every new Tomorrow comes the dawn."
