Quote by Zaishah

“I was never just what you wanted, I am more than what you desire, more than flesh, I am everything you overlooked, yet always sought. I am the person with dreams, love, fears, and truth. You took what was convenient, But never the whole me, That you couldn’t understand”

“Life is one revelation after another. Things don't always go to plan, no matter what your circumstances. But the flip side is all the unexpected, wonderful things that you could never have imagined happening. Ultimately it's all for the best that many things don't turn out the way we hoped. Try not to think of upset plans or schedules as personal failures or bad luck. If you can do that, you can change your own self and your life overall.”
