Kindle Notes & Highlights
Why was it that we sometimes wanted something that was impossible? Something that only led to hurt?
“We can’t choose our family.”
“Things will get better. I know things look hopeless right now but it won’t always be like this.”
“You only have this one life, Lily. Make the best of it. I wish I had done it and now it’s too late. I don’t want you to end like me, to look back at a life full of missed opportunities and lost dreams. Don’t let life pass you by. You are braver than me, brave enough to fight for your happiness.”
To be honest, haven’t read these quotes I saved in a couple of years and now looking back at it, can’t help but still relate to it and hoping that it is never too late.
“I always told myself there was still time to do the things I love, to be happy, and now? Now it’s too late.”
One moment Mother was there and the next she was gone. Just like that a life ended, and with it the dreams and hopes of that person. Life was so short, any moment could be your last.
The loneliness you felt when you were surrounded by people was the worst kind.
