forget all the memories
forget all the fear
forget all the bad things
thats happened to you my dear
forget all the hatred
forget all the sorrow
forget all the bad things
they can wait 'till tomorrow
forget all the bad things
thats ever brought you down
hide them in a secret place
never again to be found

You give up your childhood. You miss proms and games and high-school events, and people say it&#039;s awful... I say it was a good trade. You miss something but I think I gained more than I lost. Mary Lou Retton.<br /> <br /> Another quote by her: Each one of us ha&quot;Each one of us has a fire in our heart for something. It&#039;s our goal in life to find it and keep it lit.&quot;
