“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

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

“There’s always been a small, hopeful part buried inside me that felt he
