Kindle Notes & Highlights
You can’t look a gravestone in the eye and ask its forgiveness.
All adults have days when we feel completely drained. When we no longer know quite what we spend so much time fighting for, when reality and everyday worries overwhelm us and we wonder how much longer we’re going to be able to carry on. The wonderful thing is that we can all live through far more days like that without breaking than we think. The terrible thing is that we never know exactly how many.
There are plenty of things that hurt people without people ever really knowing why. Anxiety can act as internal gravity, shrinking the soul.
And when enough people are quiet for long enough, a handful of voices can give the impression that everyone is screaming.
