“Thoughts on Letting Go

It's possible to move on from someone even if your heart refuses to let go. And it's not something you need to consciously do. It will just happen gradually over time. The ache will always be there, but the intensity will fade, and you'll find other beautiful things to fill your days with.”
― Lang Leav, Sea of Strangers

“I wasn't kind, Jude. Not to many people. Not to you. I wasn't sure if I wanted you or if I wanted you gone from my sight so that I would stop feeling as I did, which made me even more unkind. But when you were gone—truly gone beneath the waves—I hated myself as I never have before.”
― Holly Black, The Wicked King
