But there is also love and friendship and spirituality. There are all of the things that will remind you that sunflowers grow even amidst the poison ivy. This insightful book shows us that there is good floating in the sea of ugly, if we only keep the faith.

Moments I Wish I Dreamt
"I don't wanna feel better, I wanna bask in the cold embrace of my sadness. After being almost constantly depressed for this long (almost seven years) I can't imagine what it'd be like to be happy again. I'm almost scared of the idea. In a way, I guess, it'd feel like I'd be leaving a part of myself behind if I moved on. Almost as if I was betraying this small part of myself. This small little girl who just wanted her dad to pay more attention to her, her mom to be proud of her, her sisters to like her. She's been let down by so many people already, that I don't think I can leave that girl behind."
