About This Quote
The first time we experience something great and the first time we experience something terrible. The first time we come close to getting what we want and the first time we almost lose what we want. There is joy deep inside of us as we experience these firsts, but there is also sadness as well. These firsts are the times that shape who we become as individuals throughout our lives. We gain lessons from these times and we learn who we truly are.
