Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Forget about the one's who don't. Believe things happen for a reason. If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.
You know, I'm such a huge fan of your edited pictures - but I think the ones that are really my favorites are the ones like this, and your Dupain shot. :) Just lovely.
