More quotes by Shannon L. Alder

"Sometimes the best and worst times of your life can coincide. It is a talent of the soul to discover the joy in pain—-thinking of moments you long for, and knowing you’ll never have them again. The beautiful ghosts of our past haunt us, and yet we still can’t decide if the pain they caused us out weighs the tender moments when they touched our soul. This is the irony of love."
"The most important thing is this: to sacrifice what you are now for what you can become tomorrow."
"When someone you love says goodbye you can stare long and hard at the door they closed and forget to see all the doors God has open in front of you."
"Never rearrange your life in order to meet Mr. Darcy half way. If he couldn’t see your worth at the moment you met then he won’t two years later. May the halls of Pemberly be filled with his regrets and your life filled with thankfulness because of this revelation."
"If you want to discover the true character of a person, you have only to observe what they are passionate about."
