Kindle Notes & Highlights
“Life moves pretty fast. There’s not a lot of room for coulda, shoulda, woulda.”
“I’m totally into plants. Plants make oxygen.”
“That’s a fine way to talk to the woman who dropped everything to nurse you back to health because you couldn’t swerve around a bomb,”
“This ‘woe is me, disabled cowboy’ crap act is not doing you any favors. Man up and be the rockstar you’ve always been.”
“You can’t put your worth in someone else’s hands like that. Whether those hands are stroking you or hurting you. It doesn’t matter. Your value comes from inside. Whether you mean something to him or not has nothing to do with how inherently valuable you are.”
It doesn’t matter what happens to you. In the end, all we are is our ability to love. That never gets taken away or diminished.
“Mija, sometimes the thing that makes the most sense is wrong. Don’t hide away, trying to protect yourself from ever getting hurt again. It will be a sad and colorless life. Without pain, there is no joy.”
