Kindle Notes & Highlights
“I think when you’re depressed sometimes it’s easy to think that everyone is depressed? But right this very second, there are billions of people having happy moments. I kind of forgot about those people. I thought I knew how everything worked. And that all of it was terrible.”
“It must be truly exhausting to live in your brain.”
He looks like the kind of man you cheat on your inattentive husband with.
“Grief is a relationship,” he continues. “It’s the way we figure out how to keep loving them even though they’re gone. And in order to do that we have to keep on going. And going and going.”
I am who I am because of Lou, but am I also who I am because Lou died?
For a moment, I think he’s telling Lou that he loves her, but when I look up, his eyes are on me. It occurs to me that he does love Lou. Because he loves me.
