Here's to the starry nights and careless freedom, to glowing smiles and flushed cheeks, and laughter that heals you deep inside.

To those who have pushed me, thank you.
Without you, I wouldn't have fallen.

To those who have laughed at me, thank you.
Without you, I wouldn't have cried.

To those who just couldn't love me, thank you.
Without you, I wouldn't have known real love.

To those of you who hurt my feelings, thank you.
Without you, I wouldn't have felt them.

To those of you who left me lonely, thank you.
Without you, I wouldn't have discovered myself.

But, to those who thought I couldn't do it,
it is to you I thank the most
because without you,
I wouldn't have tried.
