“Life is made up of a collection of moments that are not ours to keep. The pain we encounter throughout our days spent on this earth comes from the illusion that some moments can be held onto. Clinging to people and experiences that were never ours in the first place is what causes us to miss out on the beauty of the miracle that is the now. All of this is yours, yet none of it is. How could it be? Look around you. Everything is fleeting.

To love and let go, love and let go, love and let go...it's the single most important thing we can learn in this lifetime.”
― Rachel Brathen

“First of all, I wish you love, and that by loving you may also be loved.
But if it’s not like that, be brief in forgetting
And after you’ve forgotten, don’t keep anything.”
― Victor Hugo

“It’s a lifelong failing: she has never been prepared. But how can you have a sense of wonder if you’re prepared for everything? Prepared for the sunset. Prepared for the moonrise. Prepared for the ice storm. What a flat existence that would be.”
― Margaret Atwood, Stone Mattress: Nine Tales

“When a person tells you that you hurt them, you don’t get to decide that you didn’t.”
― Louis C.K.
