Every fairy tale needs a good old-fashioned villain

What keeps you confident in a healthy way is knowing that everyone else around you is going to support you and teach you and you’re going to learn from them. I just feel open to learning from people.

There’s so much I want to say to you all. I’m so sorry our last words were in anger. They weren’t our last. I’m sorry. I’m sorry that I didn’t answer the phone. But you did. So many times. I’m sorry if I didn’t listen, and I’m sorry It wouldn’t have changed anything. I need you to know that. Forgiveness is warm. Like a tear on a cheek. Think of that and of me when you stand in the rain. I loved you completely. And you loved me the same. That’s all. The rest is confetti.

I figure life’s a gift and I don’t intend on wasting it. You don’t know what hand you’re gonna get dealt next. You learn to take life as it comes at you… to make each day count.
