A page from the book
Even a cherished life can leave room for fear of losing it.
Τίποτα στη ζωή μου δεν θα ήταν ίδιο χωρίς τον Χουάν, αλλά νομίζω πως δυσκολεύομαι να κατανοήσω γιατί είναι μαζί μου. Φυσικά δεν είναι η πρώτη φορά που το νιώθω αυτό – αυτό τον φόβο, αυτό τον τρόμο. Έτσι ένιωθα και όταν αρρώστησε η γιαγιά. Με κατέτρωγε η αγωνία για το πώς θα έφτιαχνα τη ζωή μου χωρίς εκείνη. Κι όμως, να με. Τα κατάφερα. Δεν πιστεύω όμως ότι θα καταφέρω να αντέξω άλλη μία τέτοια απώλεια. Δεν ξέρω τι θα έκανα χωρίς αυτό τον άνθρωπο δίπλα μου, γιατί όσο φως κι αν φέρνει στη ζωή μου, εγώ εξακολουθώ να τρέμω το σκοτάδι. Κανένα ατραπανόβιος δεν είναι τόσο ισχυρό που να μπορεί να κρατήσει τον Χουάν μαζί μου για πάντα.

What it feels like to be the last two people awake in the world.
Stars flickered around us, sweet darkness sweeping in. As if we were the only souls in a galaxy.
A Court of Frost and Starlight · Sarah J. Maas
Being loved not despite the damage, but including it.
We’re all a little broken, Briana. We are a mosaic. We’re made up of all those we’ve met and all the things we’ve been through. There are parts of us that are colorful and dark and jagged and beautiful. And I love every piece of you. Even the ones you wish didn’t exist.
Yours Truly · Abby Jimenez
How to hold a love that ended without filing it under failure.
Maybe the idea of love ending being a negative thing is simply a matter of perspective. Because to me, the idea that a love came to an end means that, at some point, there was love that existed. And there was a time in my life, before you, when I was completely untouched by it.
It Starts with Us · Colleen Hoover
