“Grief is a relationship...It's the way we figure out how to keep loving them even though they're gone. And in order to do that we have to keep on going. And going and going.' His hold is tighter and tighter and mine is tighter and tighter and I've slid off the desk and into his lap. 'You are not betraying her by healing,' he whispers directly into my ear. 'You are honoring her. You are learning to love her exactly as she is. As someone who isn't here anymore...That's who she is now. And this journey through grief...It's what we do for the great loves of our lives.”

“Pero las emociones no se pueden controlar, Nacen, crecen, se extienden como raíces que se alimentan de ti y te rodean. Puedes fingir no sentirlas. Convencerte de que no existen, pero eso no las hará desaparecer. Son sombras con vida propia. No importa cuánto corras, cuánto trates de alejarte, siempre estarán ahí, pegadas a tus pies, Las proyectarás incluso en los días nublados.”
― Maria Martinez, Cuando no queden más estrellas que contar

“Well, I can’t promise the sunshine. But I can do everything else.”
