"Before dying you live, Lori"

at times it seems as though the pain of existence far outweighs the pain of death. it is only something we can hypothesize about, however when the mere thought of breathing another day seems too much of a struggle, one might seek a quick yet permanent relief to it all.

this book reconciles this feeling with a call for hope and an incentive to seek peace in every sense of the word.

it dives into how affection turned into deep love can be a catalyst for this change of perspective. but ultimately the emphasis is on how a sense of self has to be found before throwing one’s self in the pleasure of companionship.

pouring your feelings into someone can so easily leave you lost in the midst of indecisiveness and can blur the borders of the Self : the person you are, the person you desire to be, or who you are when you are not performing.

some books, as love does, leave a mark on your soul and Clarice Lispector might have managed to stamp mine.
