Quote by Damon Thomas

“I was tossed into a pool beside the Suwannee River. Out behind an old motel. Sink or swim. Arms flailing in the deep end. Chlorine and Fear. I hurt my shoulder. Tweaked my ankle. Had to be pulled out. They laughed about it all summer. Now pools are reminders. That your friends watched you sink.”

“When you find yourself assuming something, I encourage you to stop right there. Be mature enough to communicate. Make that call, send that text or email, do a video call… Do what you have to do to get clarification. Many relationships are ruined due to a lack of communication. If you genuinely care about someone, go the extra mile and communicate your thoughts and feelings. GENUINE relationships are rare and a blessing!”

“Todos nós somos capazes de perceber a tristeza no olhar do outro. Não permita que esta pessoa vá embora sem saber que você se importa. Caso ela não queira conversar sobre o assunto naquele momento, há outras formas para dizer que você está ali. Compre uma barra de chocolate, convide para almoçar ou jantar em um restaurante, assistam filmes divertidos ou simplesmente abrace-a sem lhe dizer uma palavra. Você não terá dito absolutamente nada, mas ela entenderá. Pois são as nossas ações que realmente importam.”
