“I can’t wait to be in a place where my memories of our time together don’t make me sad anymore. Those days were some of the best in my life. I want to be able to think back on them, to smile to myself and cherish them, without feeling like my entire world is falling to pieces.”

“If you know someone who has…lost anybody who’s important to them, and you’re afraid to mention them because you think you might make them sad by reminding them that they died, they didn’t forget they died. You’re not reminding them. What you’re reminding them of is that you remember that they lived, and that’s a great, great gift.”

“Sometimes I miss you without even realising I do, because I’ve noticed I see you in strangers walking by. They have their back turned, I’ll think it’s you and my heart skips a beat, then a sickly moment of realisation; that it can’t be you, because you’ve been dead a while now.”
