“Our favorite stories can be like lovers. Make sense to me, we ask them. Make sense of me. Here, fix these hurting parts. And stories do, sometimes better than our lovers.”

“It’s the oldest
lesson. The first lesson. It's like the first
noble truth of Buddhism - there's going to
be suffering, and that's okay. It’s
mandatory. It's included. It doesn't mean
you're broken. It doesn't mean that you're a
victim necessarily - it's just part of it. You're
going to hurt, and you can survive that.”

“No one tells you it's all about to change, to be taken away. There's no proximity alert, no indication that you're standing on the precipice. And maybe that's what makes tragedy so tragic. Not just what happens, but how it happens: a sucker punch that comes at you out of nowhere, when you're least expecting it. No time to flinch or brace.”
