“Is the air okay?" I texted.

"It hurts a little to breathe," my sister texted back. "But we're okay."

“So I wonder: Will a person who has drowned,
Or almost drowned, always feel
Like they're drowning,
Even after they've been saved?”
Sherman Alexie, You Don't Have to Say You Love Me

“Memory works that way—like seeing forward and backward at the same time.”
Brit Bennett, The Vanishing Half

Lily King
“It's strange, to not be the youngest kind of adult anymore”
Lily King, Writers & Lovers

“Her death hit in waves. Not a flood, but water lapping steadily at her ankles. You could drown in two inches of water. Maybe grief was the same.”
Brit Bennett, The Vanishing Half
