“Before she left She was gone before she left. Her heart started walking away long before
she physically made her way out. She started leaving when you began to put her
in the shadows, when you found more important things to
invest your time in than being in her presence, when the things that made her smile became a
burden you once carried for the sake of
winning her heart, when her ears became a well that you
dropped your promises in with no intention of
picking them up and fulfilling them. She was gone mentally and emotionally. Her physically leaving was just a delayed
response.”
― Pierre Jeanty, Ashes of Her Love

“It won’t always go your way, so you can’t get trapped in this idea that just because you’ve imagined a possibility for yourself that you somehow deserve it. Your entitled mind is dead weight. Cut it loose. Don’t focus on what you think you deserve. Take aim on what you are willing to earn!”
― David Goggins, Can't Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds

“Grief keeps the heart flexible, fluid, and open to others.”
― Francis Weller, The Wild Edge of Sorrow: Rituals of Renewal and the Sacred Work of Grief
