“ I’m a dinosaur, he thought, lumbering through a world where truthtellersare despised. ”
The heart makes its choices without weighing the consequences. It doesn't look ahead to the lonely nights that follow.
~ Tess Gerritsen
The dead do not hurt you, only the living do.
With every year that I grow older, I also draw closer to (my loved ones) to the day when we will once again be together. So I march through the deepening shadows, serene and unafraid, because I know that at the end of my journey they will be waiting for me.
God, it's like reality's completely shifted on me. I used to think I was standing on such solid ground. If I wanted something badly enough, I just worked like hell for it. Now I can't decide what to do, which move to make. All the things I counted on aren't there for me anymore.
