“I have learned that when sadness comes to visit me, all I can do is say “I see you.” I spend some time with it, get up, and say goodbye. I don’t push it away. I own it. And because I own it, I let it go.”

“I missed out on many people because I kept revisiting our memories. I spent so much time trying to make up for lost times, to feel the kisses and letting the sun in when you left. And every time someone new knocked, I’d close the windows and pretend no one was home - I was still waiting for you. I had hoped that someday you’d be the one asking for me, too.”

““Sometimes you meet someone, and it’s so clear that the two of you, on some level belong together. As lovers, or as friends, or as family, or as something entirely different. You just work, whether you understand one another or you’re in love or you’re partners in crime. You meet these people throughout your life, out of nowhere, under the strangest circumstances, and they help you feel alive. I don’t know if that makes me believe in coincidence, or fate, or sheer blind luck, but it definitely makes me believe in something.”

“In these bodies we will live, in these bodies we will die. Where you invest your love, you invest your life.”

“Some of us are so obsessed with the past that we die of it. The past for some people has such a hold and such a beauty.”

“But the world did go on, unashamed, after you”

“You suffer; You grow.”
