1 A lesson without pain is meaningless, that’s because no one can gain without sacrificing something. -Edward Elric

Do not let your mistakes define you. Never let them bring you down. Your mistakes are just lessons meant to be learned not obstacles on your path. Keep moving forward regardless of how many mistakes you make.

You only have one shot at life. Once it ends, there’s no way to come back. That is what makes life so precious and important. Never take life lightly. Find your purpose in life and do your best at it.
9 The heroes during times of war, are nothing but mass murderers during times of peace. -Riza Hawkeye
