Does that diminish my own experience, 

because someone else is having it worse? 

There is always someone with 

a worse life than yours. 

That doesn't make your life 

a road of roses.

~ Elle Kennedy ~

"I will say that today is a beautiful day, 

not because of the weather or how beautiful 

the sky looks, but because it is a new day full 

of opportunities and a chance to start anew."

~ Onipede Ayomide ~

There is something beautiful about all scars,

whatever its nature.

A scar means the pain is over,

that the wound is closed and healed, that it is over.
