“But here is the nature of life. That we must love things with our whole selves, knowing they will die.”
Charlotte McConaghy, Wild Dark Shore

“I understand it so simply now, it is a love that lives in the body but unlike the body it never dissolves. It lasts forever.”
Charlotte McConaghy, Wild Dark Shore

“I close my eyes, drinking it all in, knowing it is a place in time that I will never forget. The world is dangerous and we will not survive it. But there is this. Impermanent as it may be.”
Charlotte McConaghy, Wild Dark Shore

“But what is the use of safety if it deprives you of everything else?”
Charlotte McConaghy, Wild Dark Shore

“To live for your children seems a normal thing, a respectable one; to live because of your children is something else. Mine are the blood of me, and the oxygen in that blood, the airflow and the neurons firing and the stretch and release of muscles in limbs, they are the foundations that make up my skeleton, all the collagen and calcium upon which I stand and fall, and the pulse and the flow and the beat. But I think maybe this is too much for them to be. The breath of a man. The life of him. I think it is too heavy a thing for children to carry.”
Charlotte McConaghy, Wild Dark Shore
