Favorite Quote - ”Maybe Mistakes are what we make our fate... whitout them what would shape our lives? Maybe if we had never veered off course we wouldn't fall in love, have babies, or be who we are. After all, things change, so do cities, people come into your life and they go, but it's comforting to know that the ones you love are always in your heart... and if you're very lucky, a plane ride away.”
