Quotes to ponder:
"You know what’s weird? Maybe the hardest part is everything I have been forced to confront about myself through all this: struggles I thought I had overcome in my life and lessons that I didn’t think I had left to learn."
"I am happier. But it’s hard to describe. I would say that I now have a deeper, richer view of happiness than I had before."
