Grew Quote by LadyA
“Just when I thought I was getting soft I realized that I just grew up. Simple and petty things no longer phase me because I know who I am as a person. People's attitudes and actions towards me are not a reflection on how I treat them but it's a reflection of how they see themselves. Maturity and growth go hand in hand.”
