One True Loves

by Taylor Jenkins Reid

I had predicated my life on the idea that I wanted to see everywhere extraordinary, but I’d come to realize that extraordinary is everywhere.

You know that you will never truly be free of the grief. You know that it is something you must learn to live with, something you manage.

You are happier to have known him than you are sad to have lost him.

When you love someone, it seeps out of everything you do, it bleeds into everything you say, it becomes so ever-present, that eventually it becomes ordinary to hear, no matter how extraordinary it is to feel.
