Dedication (#u43d6126a-c29f-536b-8dbb-21dd4ff9ef4f)

Dedicated to love … however it looks, however it lands, however it happens, however it finds you in all its beautiful, complicated, messy glory.

Everyone deserves to love and be loved.

Also dedicated to an adorable ginger that I happen to think is the bee’s knees and a pretty special kind of guy … looking at you, Matt Dellisola. Thanks for being my #1 man-fan … and my friend.

Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.

—Winston Churchill
