~Scarlet O'hara~

Let me start by saying that Scarlet is my hero. Whenever I am in a bad situation, I just think back to Gone With the Wind, and how she kept herself together through it all with that one little phrase.

She has a mini-breakdown, then picks herself up and continues on. I wish I had the strength that girl had!
