&quot;What, do you really think I was<br /> strong enough to handle it?<br /> If you did, then sweetie, you<br /> don&#039;t know me at all.<br /> These &quot;smiles&quot; are fake.<br /> Just another lie people bought.<br /> You will never know the disaster<br /> that&#039;s behind them.&quot; -Anonymous

As I travel through this unknown land,
I meet people along the way.

Some may stay,
Others may go.

But someone like you,
will stay forever.

You will inspire me
to try my very best in all I do.

And spread a smile across my face.

You're one of those people who will walk with me,
through this unknown land...
full of things unseen & yet to come.

Life is a mystery. You never know what will happen until the moment right before things start to begin.
