Survivors lived with their mistakes.

When you wait all your life for something and then you find it, it's like a miracle. All the parts inside you that've been on hold, they open up and start beating.

Be yourself. Be true to that, to your heart. Patience. See what happens if you step back instead of bounding forward.
