“It feels strange to have spen much time wishing for something, for someone and then one day, suddenly,to just stop”
― Jenny Han, To All the Boys I've Loved Before

“I don’t need a thousand people to know I existed. I just want someone to know I lived.”
― Whitney Barbetti, Ten Below Zero

“I’d felt it – that moment when a person you need more than air or water or sustenance steps into your orbit and everything subtly shifts, like a camera finally sliding into focus. That person, who used to mean less than nothing, enters your life and rearranges your entire atmosphere around them, as if every atom and cell that makes you you isn’t your property anymore. Suddenly, every part of you becomes theirs – your particles dissembled and rearranged to align perfectly with someone who you don’t even know or understand yet. You cease to exist as you once were, and that person who meant nothing is suddenly, overwhelmingly, everything.”
― Julie Johnson, Say the Word

“When you walk away from your soul mate – when you take real, true love and throw it in the fire and watch as it burns down to ashes – you know you’ll never be the same again. The heart isn’t like the liver; it doesn’t regenerate, no matter how much time passes. Once it’s gone, it’s gone for good.”
― Julie Johnson, Say the Word
