Ann Aguirre

Ann Aguirre
Because it takes more courage to heal the world's hurts than to inflict them.
Ann Aguirre
This is not a love story. It is my life, and as such, there is love, loss, war, death, and sacrifice. It's about things that needed to be done and choices made. I regret nothing.
Ann Aguirre
Not just when its easy. All the time.
Ann Aguirre
I wanted proof, not promises.
Ann Aguirre
But courage wasn't an absence of fear it was fighting despite the knot in your stomach.
Ann Aguirre
I'm Sirantha Jax, and I have had enough.
