“Guilt, fear, grief, they’re all like moss, Ab. If you slow down long enough it’ll start to grow, and it won’t stop until you’re covered.”
Christian White, The Wife and the Widow

“The idea is to visualise a stream, take each negative thought and place it on a leaf, put the leaf in the stream and let it drift away. But there’s only so many leaves you can place in that stream before it forms a dam.”
Christian White, The Wife and the Widow

“You know what I see when I think about the past? A deep, vast ocean. Memories are the fish, I suppose. when I'm wading in the shallows I can reach in and pull one out if I want to. I can hold the memory in my hands, look at it, then drop I back into the water and let it swim away. But the deeper you go, the darker the water becomes. soon you can't see your feet anymore. you can't see the fish either, but you can feel them moving around you, brushing past your legs. Those fish belong out there, in the deep part.”
Christian White, The Nowhere Child
