Quote by Penny Reid

“May love, at its essence, is being a mirror for another person- for the good parts and the bad. Perhaps love is simply finding that one person who sees you clearly, cares for you deeply, challenges you and supports you, and subsequently helps you see and be your true self.”

“There are so many things I want to tell her, so many things she doesn't know; like how I remember when she first came home from the hospital, a big pink blob with a perma-smile, and she used to fall asleep while grabbing on to my pinter finger; how I sued to give her piggyback rides up and down the beach on Cape Cod, and she would tub on my ponytail to direct me one way or the other; how soft and furry her head was when she was first born; that the first time you kiss someone you'll be nervous, and it will be weird, and it won't be as good as you want it to be, and that's okay; how you should only fall in love with people who will fall in love back... I feel an ache in my throat, but i manage to smile. Two conflicting desires go through me at the same time, each as sharp as a razor blade: I want to see you grow up and Don't ever change.”

“Not because of some Disney cartoon or fairytale, I believe in a man who cherishes, loves and holds me and my personal space, who protects me, my loved ones and my integrity, a man who'll look into my eyes when we're 80 and see nothing but beauty. Not because of some far-fetched romantic ideas, but because that is exactly what I do for my loved one, and I don't need to be a prince to do so.”
