Being true to yourself Quote by Mary Gaohlee Thao
“People can change. A doubter can still believe. Evil can still turnover to good. A sinner can still repent. People can change. Change won't change itself. You on your own have to choose to evolve. Not the person who sees you as fit. People can change. But change can only do so much. It will never be you, it will never define you, it will never truly change you. People can change. And change you shall. But underneath all that skin, you are still you. Even though you've changed.”
