“I learned years ago that it’s okay to do this. To seek out small spaces for me, to stop and imagine myself alone. People are too much sometimes. Friends, acquaintances, enemies, strangers.

I am here. I am okay.”

“Maybe there is no such thing as rain; there are only raindrops, each with its own story.”

― Matt Haig, A Boy Called Christmas

“Für mich ist die Liebe so wie Bücher in einer Bibliothek. Sie gehören uns nicht, und wir müssen sorgsam mit ihnen umgehen. Wenn wir das nicht tun, zahlen wir eine hohe Gebühr.”
― Lori Nelson Spielman, Heute schon für morgen träumen
