21. Light overpowers darkness.

22. Never go a day without telling & showing others how you feel about them.

29. Not acknowledging another person’s pain is like inserting salt inside an open wound.

30. We are given a voice to utilize it, share it, connect with others, and tell our stories. ( Do Not Stop telling your stories, darlings.)
