Blessing in disguise Quote by Louise Rennison
““11:20 a.m. This is my fabulous life: the Sex God left for Whakatane last month and he has taken my heart with him. 11:25 a.m. Not literally, of course, otherwise there would be a big hole in my nunga-nungas. 11:28 a.m. And also I would be dead. Which quite frankly would be a blessing in disguise.””

For example...] Many a man curses the rain that falls…” quote by Saint Basil](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/f73/saint-basil-4281_abundance_every-disappointment-or-misfortune-can-b_143853.jpg)
