1 " We regret because we fail to listen to an inner voice that says " I Can" and we watch as that pledge is hushed by our doubts and fears. We regret because we listened to someone else's voice rather than our own or because we knew what was right and didn't do it. Imagine a life where we trusted ourselves more, believed what others said less and committed to do what was noble. There would be no regret in that. "
2 " A wedding ring is a symbol of commitment; a promise, a pledge, and a vow. The promise is to forsake all others, to stay devoted and true; the pledge is to honor that promise selflessly, to see the whole thing through; and the vow is to keep that pledge unwaveringly, until the days are few. It is a mutual agreement to become one instead of two. "
― John W Lord , Author of Worlds (Spirit of Imagination #3)
3 " No, no, my heart's fire, you misunderstand my words." Keir shifted to Xyian. " When I spoke that word, and made that pledge to you, I didn't really understand what it meant." He shifted slightly, pulling me closer. " It doesn't just mean for years and years, for the rest of our lives. Or as we would say, to the snows and beyond." " Oh?" I still wasn't sure what he was trying to say." 'Forever' means every day, every breath. Through the mistakes that we make, through the love that we share between our bodies, through illness we suffer, through sorrow, frief, and joy. All of it, Lara. "
