Kindle Notes & Highlights
My goals come first, though.
Because I'm a strong, independent woman and I don't need to lie or steal my way to win this competition.
One that isn’t simply a place to hang my coat, but somewhere filled with love and memories I’ve made with the people closest to my heart.
Everything finally feels like it’s clicking into place after all my hard work.
He’s reminded me how important it is to savor life and the people in it,
A person who makes me laugh, who challenges me, and lets me into his world. Someone who’s heart feels like a home,
"Gramps," I say to him, not even sure if he can hear me right now. But I have to say it. I have to let him know that I won't leave his side. "I'm here, everything is going to be okay. I'll be right here."
I can't fix this, even if I wanted to with all of my heart. It’s up to the doctors to save Gramps.
I feel like I have so much to tell him. That I love him, and that I appreciate him. Thank him for everything he has done for me, everything that he has sacrificed. I need more time. I need my Gramps to wake up and be with us for the next twenty years, so I can cherish every single second I have with him. I'll never take time for granted again, not after this.
“He’s always been Mr. Fix It. Anything broken? Gramps had it covered. He knows how everything works.”
All I know is that I don't want to live another day in this damn perfect town, without my perfect girl to go with it.
I wanted to show you that even though I won't always be perfect, I'll never stop trying to make you happy.
All I know is when I’m with him, my heart soars.
