“I prefer silence to the sadness
of being misunderstood.
it doesn’t matter how I explain my heart,
he doesn’t love me the way he should.
days go by without words,
and he doesn’t ask what’s wrong
like I thought he would.
but I still prefer silence to the sadness
of being misunderstood.”
― My Father's Eyes, My Mother's Rage

“It doesn't matter how busy life's been, how long the five of us have gone without seeing one another: meeting at the cottage is like pulling on a favourite sweatshirt, worn to perfection.
Time doesn't move the same way when we're there. Things change, but we stretch and grow and make room for one another.

“Singles are envious of those who are married, and married couples envy those with children, but people with children are envious of singles. It’s an endless merry-go-round. But isn’t that funny? That each person should be chasing the tail of the person in front of them, when no one is coming first or last.
