Kindle Notes & Highlights
How dare he look so good? Someone that attractive should have a little horn they toot to prepare normals like me for their arrival.
“There are enough people in the world ready to put you down. Do you need to join them?”
if there’s one thing I’ve been taught, it’s that you find meaning and value from life through yourself, not a man or anyone. Independence is the pinnacle, and while a man can be a companion, it’s a grave mistake to think he can be your center. You should never be a satellite orbiting your own life.
“No one else can be you. No one else can tell your story like you. You are unique, so write the movie you want to see.”
“Gracie, you are perfect as you are. It’s not a bad thing to want to keep peace in your life and care for the people in it. That a bad person can manipulate it doesn’t mean it’s wrong. To be kind and generous is a gift.”
“You mispronounced ‘definitely’ as ‘probably.’”
Help isn’t anything to be ashamed of and it doesn’t take away from my independence.
I worry about taking too much space, too much time, too much attention. Maybe I shouldn’t. Maybe it’s possible to take up the perfect amount. A Gracie-sized amount.
