When the first baby laughed for the first time, its laugh broke into a thousand pieces, and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies
—J. M. Barrie - Peter Pan
There is no such thing as a painless lesson. It just doesn’t exist. Sacrifices are necessary. You cannot gain anything without losing something first. Although if you can endure that pain and walk away from it, you will find that you now have a heart strong enough to overcome any obstacle. A heart made fullmetal.

You took my heart for a little while. Greatest mistake I ever made was loving you. I gave you my heart for a little while. Wish I could stay with you tonight, I’m going home. […] But I’m going crazy, now you’re not around. You should find another lover, baby, that won’t let you down.
So I can love you now, baby. So I can tell you, I talk to you Rosy.
If I stay here tonight, there’ll be trouble, but I don’t want to pretend. Cause I know that we’ll make it. […]
Rosy affair, You took my heart for a little while. Greatest mistake I ever made -Loving you. Rosy Affair, I gave you my heart for a little while. Wish I could stay with you tonight. I’m going home.
Just as you wake he comes to you and he sweeps up kingdoms and castles, angels and owls, mountains and oceans. He sweeps up the lust and the love and the lovers, the sages who are not butterflies, the running of the deer and the sinking of the Lusitania. He sweeps up everything you left behind in your dreams, the life you wore, the eyes through which you gazed.
—The sweeper of dreams - Neil Gaiman
