Kindle Notes & Highlights
“He likes his own noise, communicates in his own way. He seemed to blossom some in college, but when he came back, it’s like he went into himself again. Over the last few years, I’ve watched his smile fade and heard many more shut ups. But with you, it’s as if he’s picking up a conversation that he’s been having his whole life.”
He’s now living the perception of his reflection.
He’s giving up the fight and letting it consume him, and we’re all in the path of his implosion. It’s not going to go away overnight. This is depression. He’s barely living. Mechanical. Easy to anger and quick to blow up. There’s no solution. He might be living in his reality, but he’s also drowning in it and has been for way too long.
‘Harper, you aren’t going to get everywhere at once. You need to stop living for the what ifs and start living in the what is, one breath, one step at a time.’
The truth is, there’s rarely a right time for everything at once, and very few moments in life where you get a cue to take important leaps.
