Kindle Notes & Highlights
Is this what death feels like? I hope so. I hope Josh didn’t hurt at the end. Didn’t fear. I hope he saw it as his next adventure.
“She get tired of you refusing to let her peg you because you already have a stick up your ass?”
“I know the world tells us that we need a mom and dad. But we don’t, Magpie. We need each other. You have me. Always.”
“That’s the thing about you, Dom. That is your thing. You don’t make choices based on what is going to make you happy. You choose the responsible thing. Then you’re miserable while you’re doing it.

“When you helped me, I could breathe. When I could breathe, I could see you.”

“Everyone grieves differently. Tears are a symptom of sadness, not the feeling itself. You can be sad with your eyes dry. Your pain is valid in whatever form it comes.”
Maybe an important part of keeping someone in my life is knowing who is worth hanging on to.
