Fear is simply no match for determination.

We've all got what it takes, my darlings.

What is inside needs to be cultivated, and it will flourish,

blossom, and the cocoons we are now hiding in will crack, 

fade into oblivion, and we, the beautiful butterflies, 

will spread their wings and fly to the heavens. 

Just because they told us we couldn't do it,

we will show them how wrong they were.

We all will become the butterflies.

Our determination will take us far.

Don't you give up now; we've come so far.

I love you, my sweethearts.

Don't forget-- this is our book.

If we don't change, we don't grow. If we don't grow, we aren't really living.

This picture absolutely blows my mind anytime I look at at.

Perfection personified.

I've been fighting on a different battle field lately: I've been trying to figure out what I want to do with my life. The dream I once had had begun fading a while ago, and I felt like my life would have no sense if I didn't find a new passion (fast). After two years in college (being half-way done), I've decided to change my major, go in a different direction, and I'm as happy as I haven't been in a very long time. It will be difficult, but it will be worth it in the end, exactly like our way to becoming beautiful.

My mind is at peace at the moment, and so I can (finally) focus on my body.

I want this so much, and I need to work for it. Don't forget, it's a new day tomorrow. New beginning, new re-start, new sunrise, new day. Hope you're all well, my darlings.

I love you all so much.

You are beautiful. Don't anyone EVER tell you otherwise

(especially not yourself).

Have the loveliest week, 

my sweethearts.

Lu.
