Floating.

“You’re not a kid anymore. You have the right to choose your own life. You can start again. If you want a cat, all you have to do is choose a life in which you can have a cat. It’s simple. It’s your right.”

I wanted it so much. I don’t know why I wanted it so much.

Soulmates aren’t just lovers.

I guess my life hasn’t always been happy, or easy, or exactly what I wanted. At a certain point, I just have to try not to think too much about certain things, or else they’ll break my heart.

Love isn’t who you can see yourself with. It’s who you can’t see yourself without.

I needed to take care of myself. So I let go of all responsibility except the responsibility— and the satisfaction— of being myself. For me it was a most unusual feeling: to be comfortably irresponsible with no feelings of guilt. And, to my surprise, I found I was more effective that way.

It’s the ones you love the most who can lift you in an instant, and destroy you without trying.
