Hear me out... Willem and Jude 

[mariethethoughtcollector]

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.
