QUOTE : Things they tell you before you were born (in case you were wondering why a lot of this stuff seems vaguely familiar) 1. Life will bump up against you & it'll be awhile before you stop taking it personally but the sooner you do that, the easier it gets. 2. It's all about Love. Even the parts you decide are really hard. 3. You're not going to have to do this alone, but you're going to take awhile to figure that out, too, especially if you end up in America.
