okay, so I am one of the stupid people who brought 'a little life' with them on their summer holiday, and I am beginning to realise the errors of my ways. I just finished chapter 1, and I have realised that this book will sting and leave me emotionally ruined. I will keep you updated.
Wish me luck

I just want them to make an “A Little Life” miniseries in 10-15 years when Kit Connor is old enough to play Willem. Please and thank you.

Unlikely Conversation
Today, in a conversation with a colleague after discussing business, I mentioned that my mom had passed away. He asked, when? I said the wrong month and date but quickly corrected myself explaining that I don’t know why I did that. I wouldn’t forget the date.
He said, I’m going to tell you something personal. My wife passed away on the incorrect date you gave me. I don’t talk about it, it’s too new. We were married for 35 years. Then, he said, they are always with us, you just have to pay attention to the signs.

Ode to the Judes in my life
when the world has failed you one to many times
broken you down to pieces, left you lost and terrified
when the people weren’t there and they weren’t kind
ripped your heart, split your soul and tore your mind
when the world made you turn on yourself
your skin scarred and bruised with not much left
when the people’s own pain made yours less
your life slowly shifted into inextricable mess
when the world has shown you once again
the utter nonexistence of better change
when the people left you drained in pain
your solitude so wide so deep and intense
i beg you to hope and wait
i beg you to love and yearn
i beg for you to stay
