“want her to go, but she didn’t have to stay if it was too hard. You would figure out how to get through it.”
Emily Everett, All That Life Can Afford

“Mourning is pretty much a universal thing, right? We all have to do it, at some point. Everyone on the planet is doing it, will do it, but when you’re going through it, it’s only yours.”
Emily Everett, All That Life Can Afford
