Kindle Notes & Highlights
“It isn’t words she needs from me.” It was atonement. But I couldn’t give Wren anything that would heal the wounds I’d caused for not being there during the one moment she’d needed me the most.
Sometimes we need someone to simply be there not to fix anything or do anything in particular but just to let us feel we are supported and cared for. 🥺
It wasn’t that I thought Holt was malicious. I knew him too well for that. It was that our love hadn’t been enough. I had always thought it was a force that could move mountains. But at the end of the day, he had been able to leave with nothing more than a letter slipped under my door.
If you can leave a relationship with love,empathy and compassion without thoughts of revenge or hatred or fear that is how you let go. 😞
It wasn’t that easy for those of us marked by that night. We bore the scars in every way. We felt them every time we moved, from the ghosts haunting us to the need to be wary of everyone around us. Only my ghost was still alive. He’d just vanished from my life.
Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls the most massive characters are seared with scars. ❤️🩹
