“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. In other words, when it comes to happiness nothing is better or worse—there is no definitive state.”
― Michiko Aoyama, What You Are Looking for is in the Library

“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.

Our love is a place we can always come back to, and it will be waiting, the same as it ever was.

You belong here. ”
― Emily Henry, Happy Place

“maybe in another lifetime i will find you again and it will be different.”

“I want the kind of love
that loves me when I'm too much.
the kind of love that lets me be,
and knows I am enough.
the kind of love that accepts me,
even as I change.
the kind of love that I can ride,
despite all the waves.
the kind of love that can see me smile
and know I'm not okay.
the kind of love that holds me down
but always lets me grow.
the kind of love that sees my rage
and loves me even more.”
― Rose Brik, My Father's Eyes, My Mother's Rage
