Feeling Quote by Lang Leav
““Moments That's the tragedy of growing up—knowing you'll run out of feeling something new for the first time. the sad things is you only get so many of those moments—a handful if you're lucky—and then you spend the rest of your life turning them over in your head. I think that's why you meant as much to me as you did, why I held on for so long. I didn't know if back then, but you were the last time I would ever feel anything new.””
