But what they don’t tell you is how impossible that is when you look in the mirror and see those same scars every day of your life, right there on your face. Yeah, not so easy to get over.

With each passing day, I begin second guessing every choice. Living in fear isn’t something I ever thought I’d have to do. But this is what my life’s become. The heart wants what it wants.
