“It takes a long time to learn how to see the world as a place where people aren’t doing things to you. My husband didn’t set out to break my heart, or Ellie’s.

I hope I can be the kind of person who looks toward forgiveness first.”
― Julie Clark, The Last Flight

“Don’t look on the internet for someone who is exactly like you. Look for someone who isn’t. Love is not to never fight. Love is always making up.”
