To Night Owl from Dogfish Quotes

“Here's what we have seen: The way one story ends but then starts up again. The way families are made from people who want to be together more than they want to be apart. The way no one can tell you what is or isn't a family. Well, they can tell you but you don't have to listen and you shouldn't listen. You need to only listen to your heart. The way worrying is sometimes about the wrong thing. The way some people are bold and some people are more scared, but once in a while the parts switch. The way you can discover love even when you don't expect it.”
