People were messy. They were defined not only by what they'd done, but by what they would have done, under different circumstances, molded as much by their regrets as their actions, choices they stood by and those they wished they could undo. Of course, there was no going back - time only moved forward - but people could change. For worse. And for better. It wasn't easy. The world was complicated. Life was hard. And so often, living hurt. So make it worth the pain. .Victoria Schwab
About This Quote
It isn't easy to make the world a better place and it isn't easy to make life easier. But, we can make it worth it and we should because we won't be able to live in peace if the world still hurts the way it does. We all know that our friends can do something that may not be as helpful as they think, but at least their intentions are good. We all know that our enemies can do things that put everyone in danger, but at least their intentions are bad. So, as much as we want to believe we can change the world and make life easier for ourselves, we sometimes don't need anyone's help and we shouldn't let anyone's actions stop us from moving forward because no matter what others do, life is hard and we must be strong and move forward every time we fall.
