“It had been a long fifteen years. So much had changed in both their lives. Both hearts somehow sadly hardened. “Let us just make it through,” Claire whispered her desperate plea. It was her only prayer, one she said over and over again. An almost cynical laugh erupted out of her as she turned one last time to say goodbye to her father’s tombstone. That was her prayer? That was all she could come up with to say to God? Then so be it.”
Laura Aranda, Pushing Back the Darkness

“You must also forgive yourself. You must forgive yourself for any past mistakes and failures that you cannot forget.”
