*My friend, Mai Lee, told me this after I had the infamous fight mentioned in three of my submitted poems:

"Why shed tears for someone who doesn't give a crap about you anymore."

"A friendship doesn't begin with one single memory, but is made by many."

"BEAUTY RADIATES FROM THE INSIDE OUT."

~This was said to me by a very good friend of mine, Z. .

The following quote was told to me by one of my best friends, Carlota:

"We are not born knowing how to function in relationships. We have to learn through experience."
