Lessons in Life

1. Life is short, but there is always time enough for courtesy
2. Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel it hurts you, it will probably hurt the other person, too
3. To run away from trouble is a form of cowardice and, everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in the end.
4. We can never judge the lives of others, because each person knows only thier own pain and renunciation. It's one thing to feel that you are on the right path, but it's another to think that yours is the only path.
5. Have the courage to say no. Have the courage to face the truth. Do the right thing because it is right. It's better to be defeated on principle than to win on lies.
6. Most things break, including hearts. The lessons of life amount not to wisdom, but to scar tissue and callus
7. To err is human, to forgive divine.
8. Life moves on, whether we act as cowards or heroes.

Taylor Swift - Breathe

I see your face in my mind as I drive away
'Cause none of us thought it was gonna end that way
People are people and sometimes we change our minds
But it's killing me to see you go after all this time

Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm

Music starts playin' like the end of a sad movie
It's the kinda ending you don't really wanna see
'Cause it's tragedy and it'll only bring you down
Now I don't know what to be without you around

And we know it's never simple, never easy
Never a clean break, no one here to save me
You're the only thing I know like the back of my hand

And I can't breathe
Without you, but I have to
Breathe
Without you, but I have to

Never wanted this, never want to see me hurt
Every little bump in the road I tried to swerve
People are people and sometimes it doesn't work out
Nothing we say is gonna save us from the fall out

And we know it's never simple, never easy
Never a clean break, no one here to save me
You're the only thing I know like the back of my hand

And I can't breathe
Without you, but I have to
Breathe
Without you, but I have to

It's two a.m., feelin' like I just lost a friend
Hope you know it's not easy, easy for me
It's two a.m., feelin' like I just lost a friend
Hope you know this ain't easy, easy for me

And we know it's never simple, never easy
Never a clean break, no one here to save me, oh

I can't breathe
Without you, but I have to
Breathe
Without you, but I have to
Breathe
Without you, but I have to
