black-and-white world moral
The world is not that black and white, Rachel. There are no moral absolutes. It is complex.
guilt energy waste
Guilt is a supreme waste of time and energy.
thinking checks
You don't have to talk to someone to think about them and check up on them now and again.
regret real believe
I had seen the light, come to believe that a wedding should be about a feeling between two people, not a show for the masses...It was a magical, romantic evening, and although I occasionally wish I had worn a slightly fancier dress, and that Nick and I had danced on our wedding night, I have no real regrets about the way we chose to do things.
book focus trying
I really try to focus on my books and readers.
love-is life-is reason

believe fate people
There are people and places and events you'd prefer to forget or at least gloss over. In the end, you can slap a pretty label on it - like serendipity or fate. Or you can believe that it's just the random way life unfolds.
looks hours projects
Often I feel that projects overwhelm us when we look at how many hours are involved until completion. But just getting started is usually not that difficult.
black-and-white thinking wish
Life is about the gray areas. Things are seldom black and white, even when we wish they were and think they should be, and I like exploring this nuanced terrain.
everyday want monogamous-relationship
But certainly not everyday you can find someone who wants to have a monogamous relationship
