Lessons in Life (1) - Growing Up


"Sometimes we have to see for ourselves. We have to make our own mistakes. We have to learn our own lessons. We have to sweep today's possibility under tomorrow's rug until we can't anymore. Until we finally understand for ourselves. That knowing is better than wondering, that waking is better than sleeping, and even the biggest failure, even the worst most intractable mistakes beats the hell out of never trying"
Ellen Pompeo in Grey's Anatomy

What if alot happened today :(

I'll need to separate the dirt into many portions to sweep over the days. Better still, I'll get a vacuum cleaner :D
