More quotes by Shoki Mmola

I stayed long for me but not for the bigger picture. There is nothing that you can explain to the girls that they do not know; they remember stuff I do not even recall

It breaks my heart, but at least they have an understanding

The lack of a biological family was one of the things that compromised me in that situation

And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
