Life Quote by Lara Adrian
““I have to do something purposeful with this new life – for myself as much as I want to show my people that I’m not the awful person they believe me to be. I need to prove that I have honor, that I’m worth something.” “You don’t have to prove a damn thing to anyone, Sia. You are all of those things already.””
