Every day Quote by Carrie Green
““I felt like I was supposed to be doing something bigger, something more meaningful, something… I didn’t bloody know. Every day, I wondered, ‘Why do I feel like this? Can someone please help me?!’ There were days when I was in despair and just wanted to cry, because I didn’t know what to do. But then it dawned on me that the reason I didn’t have a clue was because I was largely doing nothing.””
