A Lighthouse Christmas Quotes

“I’m so confused about who I am,” she admitted to him. “I don’t know anymore.” “I do,” he said. “You’re the girl who wants to be heard. And what she doesn’t know is that while she thinks no one is listening, we all hear her. You’re the girl who loves people by taking care of them, and that’s why you’re having such a hard time right now. You feel that being able to support your family is how you show your love for them. But they all see it anyway. Your strength is in the glow that radiates from you when you walk into a room. It’s magical because we all see it—it blinds us—even if you don’t see it.” He wiped a tear from her cheek, his words hitting her hard. “Your presence is strong enough that you took a man who didn’t think he could ever feel again and made him so excited to face the day that he couldn’t sleep at night. That’s who you are.”

“I’ve been thinking I was strong when really I wasn’t at all. I just pushed everything down and hid it. But you—you moved through it, let the pain consume you, and then came out on the other side. That’s real strength.”

“We’re all vulnerable, and let me save you the suspense: even though your problems aren’t life-threatening, they’re still real, they’re still stressful. And it isn’t your job to make it look easy. Fall apart if you want to—I don’t mind. I’ve seen worse in my own mirror, I can promise you.”

“Okay.” She looked up at him and forced a smile. “I feel so terrible that this isn’t turning out the way we’d hoped.” “Nothing ever turns out the way we think it will,” he said. “That’s how life is. We’re beings who thrive on consistency and routine but life is madness—random and sudden, like the sea. It hits us when we least expect it.”

“Just as we’re standing here now, unaware of the time, yet it’s slowly slipping away from us second by second, minute by minute.” “That’s a bit terrifying,” she said with a fearful chuckle. “For us, maybe,” he said, clearly unconvinced, “but time continues. It ticks on forever. I like to think that we do too somewhere. If you want to talk to her, talk to her. She might be listening.”

“With the heat from the fire, the Christmas lights twinkling, and the people she loved next to her, Mia couldn’t help but hope that, despite everything, Christmas might just have a little magic after all.”
