“Grief, I’ve learned, is really just love. It’s all the love you want to give, but cannot. All that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go.”
Jamie Anderson

Pierre Alex Jeanty
“What good are flowers without water?
What good are promises without actions?”
Pierre Alex Jeanty, Her

Gwendolyn Brooks
“Tragedy.
She considered that word. On the whole, she felt, life was more comedy than tragedy. Nearly everything that happened had its comic element, not too well buried, either. Sooner or later one could find something to laugh at in almost every situation. That was what, in the last analysis, could keep folks from going mad. The truth was, if you got a good Tragedy out of a lifetime, one good, ripping tragedy, thorough, unridiculous, bottom-scraping, not the issue of human stupidity, you were doing, she thought, very well, you were doing very well.”
Gwendolyn Brooks, Maud Martha

Brené Brown
“Quoting Viola Davis (who is sharing rules she lives by):

'4. I will not be a mystery to my daughter. She will know me and I will share my stories with her—the stories of failure, shame, and accomplishment. She will know she’s not alone in that wilderness.”
Brené Brown, Braving the Wilderness

Pierre Alex Jeanty
“She wasn’t
created
for everybody,
her heart
wasn’t
made for
everyone.
Her love won’t
be enough for
just any man.”
Pierre Alex Jeanty, Her
