"I advise you to stop sharing your dreams with people who try to hold you back, even if they're your parents. Because if you're the kind of person who senses there's something out there for you beyond whatever it is you're expected to do-if you want to be EXTRA-ordinary, you will not get there by hanging around a bunch of people who tell you you're not extraordinary. Instead you will probably become as ordinary as they expect you to be."

for what more could anyone ask for then to be conceived in your heart,
born in your eyes,
live on your cheeks,
and die upon your lips.
