[text id: i hope you believe that you can still make a beautiful life for yourself even if you lost many years of it to grief, or darkness, or a wound that wouldn’t close. (...) if you have forgotten, i hope you know that you are worthy of the kind of love that shines warmth into all corners of you. you always have been. (...) because at the end of the day, the most formidable thing about the right kind of love is that it will not just choose you in all that is light filled and perfect in your world. it will crack you open, it will find the rooms within your heart and your mind that are padlocked and hard to touch, and it will hold you there. it will understand you, and see you, and it will not run from you when the wound is scratched. it will stand firmly in front of you and hold your face between its palms and it will say, “it is okay to be who you are with me.”]

One day you think: I want to die. And then you think, very quietly, actually I want a coffee. I want a nap. A sandwich. A book. And I want to die turns day by day into I want to go home, I want to walk in the woods, I want to see my friends, I want to sit in the sun. I want a cleaner room, I want a better job, I want to live somewhere else, I want to live.

Grief is the only proof that I love and I love well. Love and grief are actually intertwined with each other and as "Akif Kichloo" once wrote, "the opposite of grief is not laughter or happiness or joy. It is love. It is love. It is love."

"Sometimes life is stranger than fiction, but sometimes it's incomparable in other ways. Sometimes it's heaven that the false fire of imagination could never capture."
