because you're inside yourself, your body, you can't see yourself.

that adore us and believe in the highest of us.

Don't let go of them.
Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world.

of happy people and unhappy people
through two different, but complementary mechanisms,

in this case by sharing my emotional outlook on life.

Don't take it personally.
