1 " As humans, we often let our egos rule our decisions. We let fear stop us from reaching our true potential. We forget about love. But the heart, it never forgets. No matter what happens, no matter how hard things get, it always remembers. "
― Liz Fenton , The Year We Turned Forty
2 " You make all your mistakes with your own children so by the time your grandchildren arrive, you know how to get it right. Plus, once you turn fifty, you kind of stop giving a shit what others think. "
3 " Sometimes you have to fight like hell for something, even when you doubt you deserve it. "
4 " People never suspected that she was mourning the loss of a child she’d never have, a loss that felt as great as the canyon in her heart that was formed when her mom died. "
5 " ...you never really get over losing someone or something you love. But the world keeps moving and you have to also, or you’ll get lost. Learning to accept things and move on isn’t a weakness. It’s a strength. "
