Quote by Monica Lu

“But grief is a funny thing like that - it doesn't run on anybody's time frame. It comes and goes, and the pain from losing the light of our lives still resides in all of us. You never really get over these types of things, you kind of live with it and slowly make it your new normal.”

“Yes, now you know. Now you know! That's what it was to be alive. To move about in a cloud of ignorance; to go up and down trampling on the feelings of those...of those about you. To spend and waste time as though you had a million years. To be always at the mercy of one self-centered passion, or another. Now you know — that's the happy existence you wanted to go back to. Ignorance and blindness.”

“I’d never forgive myself if he were to die tomorrow and that he didn’t know I loved him, Ezra. He’s not perfect but once upon a time, he showed up and I can’t expect you to understand because you’ve known him for only for the time he wasn’t his best but I love him. I love him more than his mistakes, and while it hurts when he’s not there for me anymore, I still love him. I can’t just let him go. I’d be damned living my life knowing that I hadn’t even tried.”

“Ezra, you can’t let things like guilt, fear, anger, and grief be the narrative of your life. Because the thing is, the world keeps spinning and you’re going to be left behind in your own miserable sorrow. Loss is hard. It’s difficult. We do not always win, but when we do, we cherish those wins. You cannot be afraid to live just because you’re scared of losing. You only live once, Ezra. Cherish its highs and its lows. Don’t be scared to live it. Don’t let fear take over you like it once did me.”
