When you're struggling with something, look at all the people around you and realize that every single person you see is struggling with something, and to them, it's just as hard as what you're going through.

I do not use profanity in my novels. My characters all go to church.

"You are the answer to every prayer I've offered. You are a song, a dream, a whisper, and I don't know how I could have lived without you for as long as I have." (The Notebook)

I don't know that love changes. People change. Circumstances change.
