River Piedra Quotes

“At some point, we have each said through our tears, "I'm suffering for a love that's not worth it." We suffer because we feel we are giving more than we receive.

But ultimately there is no good reason for our suffering, for in every love lies the seed of our growth.”

If only I could tear out my heart and hurl it into the current, then my pain and longing would be over, and I could finally forget.”
