“It’s okay to smile through your grief. As time passes, it’s okay to laugh and enjoy yourself. Don’t let the devil of guilt consume you. We are still here for a reason. It’s time to live life with purpose and passion.”
“Esta bien sonreir a traves del dolor. A medida que pasa el tiempo, esta bien reir y disfrutar. No dejes que el diablo de la culpa y te consuma. Todavia estamos aqui por una razon. Es hora de vivir la vida con proposito y pasion.
