The tighter you hold on, the more it’s going to hurt.

She sprouted love like flowers,
grew a garden in her mind,
and even on the darkest days,
from her smile the sun still shined.
Erin Hanson

Don’t wait for someone to bring you flowers.
Plant your own garden and decorate your own soul.
Luther Burbank
