They didn't fuss or judge or mock or reject.They invited you in, fluffed up the pillows on the couch, offered you tea and toast, and shared their hearts with no expectation that you'd do anything more than absorb what they had to give.”
― Sarah Beth Durst, The Spellshop

― Nicola Yoon, Everything, Everything

“Happiness does not exist in a place. It lives in every breath we take. You need to choose to take it in, over and over again.”
