"Do you ever look at someone and wonder what is going on inside their head?"

"I miss home. I miss my old friends."

"Crying helps me slow down and obsess over the weight of life's problems."

"I'm not happy right now, and that's okay. Emotions change."

"Sometimes you get memories mixed up with dreams."

"Mom and Dad got me a PlayStation? That's so cool!"

"I used to be happy all the time."

"Moving to a new place is hard, but maybe it's an adventure."

"Friends are what make life better."

"I can be brave even when I'm scared."

"Hockey is what I love to do."

"Some memories are core memories because they shape who we are."

"Growing up means things change, and that's part of life."

"I'm allowed to feel sad sometimes."

"What if I try to be positive about this move?"

"My family means everything to me."

"New places can be scary, but they can also be exciting."

"I miss the way things used to be."

"Even when things are hard, I can find moments of happiness."

"Home is where your family is."

"Sometimes the best way to deal with change is to accept it."

"I learned that it's okay to not be okay."

"Making new friends might be possible after all."

"Every moment creates who we become."

"Sadness teaches us about joy."

"I'm growing up and learning about myself."

"There's beauty in all of our emotions."

"I can handle this. I'm stronger than I think."

"Memories are precious because they connect us to what matters."

"Sometimes you have to let go to move forward."
