“I was taught that you can’t expect to be forgiven when you continuously commit the same sin over and over again.”

“I’ve learned through the years that it’s not where you live, it’s the people who surround you that make you feel at home.”

“Gabby couldn't believe what he had just said. Her mouth gaped open and a flirty smile came over her. She slowly peeled her half wet white t-shirt over her head and then slowly shimmied out of her shorts. What had gotten into her?

“I know you probably feel like there's no color left in the world. Like there's no light, instead all darkness. But there's sunshine. There are colorful flowers all around us. And for me, you're the only thing...the only one I see. The only one I've seen in a long time. I know it's hard to imagine, but one day you'll see the colors again.”

“You can’t get back the time in the past. You can’t change it. You can only make sure to learn and move forward.”

“Never lose Faith. Always have hope. Love for always.”

“Turning my head so I can look into his eyes, I strum my fingers across his cheek. “You’re right. I think we’ve both had enough darkness. I want to live in light.”

“Because I want to know if I'm allowed to kiss your tears away. Because I want to be able to hold your hand. Because I like you.”
