Quotes by Christina Rickardsson (?)

“Missing someone doesn’t have anything to do with how long it’s been since you last saw each other, or the number of hours that have passed since you last spoke. It’s about specific moments when you wish they were there by your side.”
― Christina Rickardsson, Never Stop Walking: A Memoir of Finding Home Across the World
