Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist S02E04 - You have to wake up every day and choose happiness

Yeah, life will do that to you. It's not like you have to only feel one thing at a time. You can feel all of the emotions at the same time. Like, happiness, anger, grief. Look, you got this... You got a massive hole in your heart that you just can't fill. And I understand that. But the good news is that eventually that hole will scar over. You can wear that scar like a badge of honor. And it won't define you. It'll deepen you. It could... and you'll learn how to draw strength from it.
