![“Someone once told me that life changes, and you give up old dreams so that new ones can take their place. I held on to this dream [...] I kept it safe and close to my heart. I could never let go of it, because a part of me always knew you’d come back for it one day.” quote by Jeremy Pack](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/49d/jeremy-pack-107605_close-to-my-heart_someone-once-told-me-that-life-changes-a_161072.jpg)
