“Your eyes are a blue universe, and I’m just falling into them. No parachute. I don’t need one because I’m never going to hit the ground.”

“When two souls fall in love, there is nothing else but the yearning to be close to the other. The presence that is felt through a hand held, a voice heard, or a smile seen.
Souls do not have calendars or clocks, nor do they understand the notion of time or distance. They only know it feels right to be with one another.
This is the reason why you miss someone so much when they are not there--even if they are only in the very next room. Your soul only feels their absence--it doesn't realize the separation is temporary.”
― Leav Lang

“...the story serves as an important reminder to all of us that sometimes, when people are hurting, they don't need our advice and theological theorizing as much as they need our understanding and comfort.”

“You can't reconcile the people you love with the things they do, especially to you. You are stuck with loving them … Perhaps, though people do awful things to one another, there's no one to pin the blame on in the end.”
― Meg Federico, Welcome to the Departure Lounge: Adventures in Mothering Mother
