But boys like him grow up. Boys like him open their eyes and learn the patterns. Boys like him pick up those pieces you shattered and push onward.

We were not meant to be forever. We were destined to find each other at our weakest so to inspire great change in one another.

Not only did I find a lot of myself in Belle with her love of reading and longing for adventure and love, but also I learned many lessons which I still carry with me today.

You have set fire to my world. A fire that consumes every fiber of my body, a heat that is blissfully warm but never scorches or scars, a flame that never dies.

When you accept who you are, you will begin to find people who truly love you for the person you are. You won’t have to try to be something different for them. Just being you will be enough. Finding those people will change your life.
