1)&quot;You can&#039;t live your life for other people. You&#039;ve got to do what&#039;s right for you, even if it hurts some people you love.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Nicholas Sparks (The Notebook) <br /> 2)<br /> &quot;It&#039;s possible to go on, no matter how impossible it seems, and that in time, the grief . . . lessens. It may not go away completely, but after a while it&#039;s not so overwhelming.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Nicholas Sparks (Dear John)

I sit on a cloud
Waiting for the sun to shine down on me
And yet it never does
I stand in a field
Waiting for the wind to hit my chest
And yet it never does
That night I sit alone
On that faithful rock
A turtle by my side
He’s the only friend I’ve got
So I wait
And wait
With him by my side
I see some shadows with beating eyes
And I know that my friends are close by
