📄 My Favorite Quotes:

“I heard about a young man, who believed he was immortal and wanted to live as if he were to die tomorrow. Then he quickly realized there was no such thing as immortality.”

“But then I remember the first time I made you smile. And I swear I could feel my heart swell up in my chest. You smiled at me and I just knew that no one else would matter. Your smile was my new favorite thing.”

“I doubted that all he wanted was for us to be together. Or maybe he did. Maybe it was just that simple.”

“Family was a simple concept. It wasn’t that it had to be founded on the basis of blood, but the closeness of the relationship you share with others.”
