About This Quote

It is hard to be free, but sometimes it is necessary to do what you know is right. For me, I knew that I would never be happy if I let anyone tell me how and if I could and couldn’t live my life. I knew that no matter how long it took, no matter what the cost – I would find a way to be happy.
