Quotes by Kimi Cunningham Grant (?)

“The thing about grace is that you don’t deserve it. You can’t earn it. You can only accept it. Or not.”
― Kimi Cunningham Grant, These Silent Woods

“Because if your own child, the person for whom you’ve sacrificed everything, for whom you’ve broken laws as well as your own personal sense of boundaries, has lost confidence in you, and in turn, in themselves and the world at large, then what’s the point of any of it?”
― Kimi Cunningham Grant, These Silent Woods

“Spin into regretting and wishing and remembering, and it's a vortex, that type of thinking. It'll suck you right down and you have to kick and claw your way back. Better to stay in the present.”
― Kimi Cunningham Grant, These Silent Woods
