All quotes βWe rely upon the poets, the philosophers, and the playwrights to articulate what most of us can only feel, in joy or sorrow.

I went to a bookstore to try to find a book. The bottom line is, it all comes by trial and error. It was scary and exciting at first you don't know what to expect. But once you look into your child's eyes, you forget about that.
