Pining for My Best Friend Quotes

“My heart is like lead in my chest, a heavy weight dragging me down. Lily does not have a family. She can’t run to a brother or sister and get advice. There’s no shoulder to cry on, no Nana to talk to—she’s alone. That hurts me. I don’t want that for her. I want to be the one she knows she can rely on, the one who will always be there. But I also need to respect her wishes right now, and let her have some alone time, as much as it hurts to walk away right now.”
― Kristine W. Joy, Pining for My Best Friend

“I don’t have any family left, so spending the day with you has been extra special. It made me feel less alone, and the holidays feel real again.” The missing ingredient, all along, was family. I may not have mine, but I have Nana this year.”
