And for better.

It wasn't easy. The world was complicated. Life was hard. And so often, living hurt.

So make it worth the pain.”
― Victoria Schwab, Our Dark Duet

― Robin Roe, A List of Cages

“It means people who make mistakes usually learn from them. That doesn’t make them hypocrites. It makes them experienced.”
