“لكن بعض المشاھد محزن فعلا..وبالنسبة إلى ھذه أیضا
فاني لا أغمض عیوني عنھا أیضا لأنھا في نظري تمثل
جانبا من جوانب الحیاة واعتقد أن صرف العیون عن مثل
ھذه المشاھد ولو أنھا محزنة ھو بالذات إغلاق للقلب
وإغلاق للفكر.”
― هيلين كيلر

“But more often than not, the easy decisions are the wrong decisions, and sometimes we feel like we’re going backward when we’re actually moving forward.”

“So this is what you do when it all slows down and the minutes that tick by feels a little longer than before. You open your eyes a little wider, and look at everything. Take it all in. Rehash stories of old, remember people, times and occasions gone by. Allow everything you see to remind you of something. Talk about those things. Stop and take your time to notice things and make those things you notice matter. Find out the answers you didn't know to yesterday's crosswords. Slow down. Stop trying to do everything now, now, now.”

“My friends' hugs are longer and tighter; consist of extra squeezes and pats, which alternate between a circular rubbing motion and a light pitter-pattering on the back, both of which I find surprisingly comforting.”
