Lauren OliverI don't understand how everything changes, how the layers of your life get buried. Impossible. At some point, at some time, we must all explode.
About This Quote
There is an element of truth to this quote that we can all relate to. We can all remember a time in our lives when we were certain that we would never change and yet, here we are, two years down the road and things have changed beyond recognition. Change is inevitable, but it isn't always easy. As life progresses, we change as well.
We become more mature and our foundations become stronger. But the key to having a foundation strong enough to stand on as you grow up is to make sure that you aren't too attached to the things you once held dear. Don't be afraid to let go of things that no longer serve you.
