81 " The stars choose our lovers. We were born into this world to be together. You are my better half. You are my person. "
― Charlena E. Jackson , The Stars Choose Our Lovers
82 " If you do not remember anything else, I could be telling you wrong, but always put yourself and your needs first. Never put someone else before you—it might be selfish, but I learned when I put other people's needs before mine. I was the one who got burned. I lost my way, and I was the only one traveling an unknown road alone. I gave so much of myself and my all to be only left with nothing. "
83 " The difficult road I took alone—I kept walking, and most importantly, I kept turning the pages, and it landed me here. "
84 " Somehow I made it possible to see the reflection of footprints from just the right amount of light. I manage to see the reflection of the waves and the stars in the sky. It was delightful and humbling to the soul. It was like I was a person who was walking in someone else’s shadow—however, I pulled away and took a chance on life. "
85 " Words hurt and cause a lot of damage. Sometimes, there’s no coming back from that. It changes everything. It changes the people who love you. It changes people's relationships. Bad choices of words turn your life upside down. Sometimes there’s no coming back from what has been done. "
86 " Bad choices of words turn your life upside down. Sometimes there’s no coming back from what has been done. "
87 " What’s done is done—it happened for a reason. That doesn’t mean a person can’t change for the better. However, the person who the other person hurt has to be willing to forgive in order to make it better and for change to happen. In order for a person to forgive the other person, the other person should look back at what has happened and should be willing to live and learn from their past. Bad choices of words turn your life upside down. Sometimes there’s no coming back from what has been done. "
88 " Love is love and shouldn’t be looked at as anything less than—love. "
89 " I am finding myself as you drown me in your love. You are where I want to be. Your kiss is kissing away all of my fears. Love is all I need from you, and that will be enough. "
90 " The silence in darkness and in broad daylight is killing me. "
91 " You cannot change a person. That will be a game you will lose every single time—you will be the one hurt at the beginning, middle, and end of the day. "
92 " Keep in mind, if a person disrespects their mother, they will have no respect for you. "
93 " I was greeted by the pain in my chest from the words that had so effortlessly spilled from your mouth. "
94 " I am trying to make the worse seem so much better. "
95 " I am smothering myself with unanswered questions. The silence is so loud to the point I cannot think. "
96 " I am not willing to fight because mentally I have lost the battle. "
97 " I will apologize for how I said things, but I am not apologizing for what I said. I am entitled to speak my mind. "
98 " I am tired of always holding everything in—how is that fair to me? "
99 " I always had your back, and you spit venom in my face. "
100 " You had death in your eyes while I had tears in mines. "
