The truth about forever is that it is happening right now.

If this was my instinct talking, I didn‟t want to hear what it was saying.

I don't believe in failure, because simply by saying you've failed, you've admitted you attempted. And anyone who attempts is not a failure. Those who truly fail in my eyes are the ones who never try at all. The ones who sit on the couch and whine and moan and wait for the world to change for them.

Editing is hard but nowhere NEAR as tough as facing that blank page and blinking cursor each day. You're all alone and no one else can do it. At least with editing you have someone in the trench with you.
Sarah Dessen
I knew this feeling, the 2 a.m. loneliness that I'd practically invented.
Sarah Dessen
I didn't want to talk about what happened, so it seemed safest not to talk at all.
Sarah Dessen
I looked down again at the sign in my hand - ENJOY THE RIDE! - and it seemed, suddenly, to be just that. A sign.

It's all about you, Colie. She touched one finger to her temple, tap tap tap. Believe in yourself up here and it will make you stronger than you could ever imagine. There is something infectious about confidence. And for that one moment, with my eyebrows burning and my eyes watering, I believed. And good hair never hurt either.

I would miss Colby, but it wasn't going anywhere. All the more reason why I should.
Sarah Dessen
That first love. And the first one who breaks your heart. For me, they just happen to be the same person.
