“Part of that is luck, part
is circumstance, the rest is mystery. But one of the lessons
I’ve had to learn is that, while many of my relationships
didn’t have the shape that I would’ve chosen, they were the
shape that made sense for the connection I had with that
person.”
― Natasha Lunn, Conversations on Love

“I will have longevity in a relationship like that, but my
guess is that I will never grow that tree, and it’s OK,
because I’m going to grow a more varied garden. So I’m
realizing that there isn’t necessarily going to be one long
love for me, but maybe a series of shorter love stories. Just
as making peace with what I don’t get is going to be a
series of acceptances.”
― Natasha Lunn, Conversations on Love

“I used to think love was the feeling hanging between me
and my mum on that phone call, a mix of what I felt for her
and what she felt for me. But now I understand that love
was the act of switching the way I responded to the
moment; it existed in both the intention and the choice to
consciously focus on it.”

“We’re creatures
of wanting, but also of consciousness.”
