We do not remember days, we remember moments.<br /> Expect the unexpected.<br /> Life will always through you curves. Just keep fouling them off. The right pitch will come. And when it does, be prepared to run the bases.

Open your eyes,
Let life grab you.
Take off your mask
And sit down for a minute.
You don't always have to carry
Such sturdy walls around you.
The world can take your pain
So fall down for a moment,
I'll be here to catch you.
