Denial Quote by Sage74
“It's o.k. if you're in denial now. You think you're o.k... 'you're over him, forget him, his loss, etc. etc.' .. the important thing is that _you HOLD ON_ to that denial, for -- eventually -- it will become your own truth. ALL wounds heal. Just keep looking forward, keep moving, and don't give in to that nagging desire to reminisce, look back, or regret. Everything is meant to be the way it goes...”

![“Yeah, it was horrible! I mean really horrible. I felt incredibly awkward. It was not something I was [looking forward to]. I don't know, but it looked good. We somehow managed to make it look realistic. I was proud of myself that I managed to power through and be professional.” quote by Emma Watson](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/53b/emma-watson-1023_awkward_yeah-it-was-horrible-i-mean-really-horri_27410.jpg)
