“Let's say since you were little, and you always dreamed of someday getting a lion, and you wait and you wait and you wait and you wait, and the lion doesn't come. Then along comes a giraffe. You can be alone, or you can be with the giraffe.”

Why do you leave everyone? Why did you let me go? Maybe because I... I don't really believe that it's gonna work, and then I make sure that it doesn't work.

Our good fortune allowed us to feel a sadness that our parents didn’t have time for and a happiness that I never saw with them.

makes it very easy to end up alone. to leave people. you can stay in the same place and still find ways to leave people. you are like that? that’s what you do? wow so. we are the same? i guess so.

Well, let’s say that since you were little, you always dreamed of getting a lion. And you wait, and you wait, and you wait, and you wait but the lion doesn’t come. And along comes a giraffe. You can be alone, or you can be with the giraffe. ‘I’d wait for the lion.’ That’s why I worry about you.
