The lunatic, the lover, the poet, are of imagination of all compact. -William Shakespeare

So don't worry, because I am with you. Don't be afraid, because I am your God. I will make you strong and will help you. I will support you with my right hand that saves you.
Isaiah 41:10

"Expectation is the root of all headaches"- William Shakespeare

"Here take my Elmo" -Chloe'

“If you love something, let it go. If it comes back to you, its yours forever. If it doesn’t, then it was never meant to be.”

You had your turns
You did you burns
Now I must get stronger
‘Cause I can’t take this any longer
I have fallen back in this place
You must give me my space
You’ve made every promise to me
And you broke them all so let me be
You will never pull me in
Again
‘Cause I’m through
With being anything to you
I will pull myself out of it
Because I’m better than any of this
Please save me the heartbreak
Of saying this was a big mistake
I’m never coming back
You can count on that
No matter how long it takes
This heart will never break
Again…
