Kindle Notes & Highlights
In a world where you can choose anger or empathy, always choose empathy,
Sometimes the best way to show love or be kind to someone is to meet them where they are.”
You can still love someone that you’ve decided not to speak to anymore. You can still wish them well and hope for the best for them. Choosing a life without them doesn’t mean you stop caring about them. It just means that you can’t allow them to harm you anymore. But if you don’t think your life would be better without them in it, then accept that they have cracks. Try to understand how they got them and help fill them with something that isn’t ice.”
Not everything that comes out of crisis is bad. Sometimes your traumas are the reason you know how to help.
