Life Quote by Penny Reid
““I also asked time to stand still. Because I'd been wrong. In life, there are three periods of time: before, after and now. I'd always thoughts of now as a limbo. Sometimes, rarely, it was limbo. But in the scheme of things, if I took the time to stop and open my eyes; if I paid attention, and counted my blessings, now wasn't limbo. Now was heaven.””
