‎ Because You Loved Me Quotes

“yourself you are strong, capable and confident. Because underneath all that wibblin’ and waverin’, you are. And I will tell you this. Life is too short and too sweet to waste any of it puttin’ things off. Why would you think so little of yourself that you would let another day – another hour – pass by with the big ugly shadow of a spider hangin’ over your head?
