Remember

"You argue that there is no choice. But love, there is always a choice. Always. They may not all be pretty, or black and white, and they are sometimes heartbreaking and they always change you. They can be instinctive, or painful, or the most difficult decision you have ever brought to bear; and it can be easy to think that fate has put you in an impossible situation where you are powerless and trapped. It may seem easy, then, to throw up your hands and say, 'I can do nothing. This is where life has thrown me and I could not change it no matter how hard I struggled.'

"And this may be true. And there will always be some circumstances beyond your control. But remember, dearest, that you are never, ever without a choice in how you live in these times, in what sort of face you turn to the world when your back is against the wall. When you have two hands and a mind and a will, there is always a way to walk that is uniquely your own, a way to take the circumstances and shape your own destiny by them.

"And sometimes, you can decide to forge your own path, even when the direction is forced upon you.

"And sometimes, this changes everything.

"Don't forget."
