So much for not so much. Lorrie Moore

This is what happens. You put it away for a little while, and now and again you look in the closet for something else and you remember, and you think, soon.

I understand feeling as small and as insignificant as humanly possible. And how it can actually ache in places you didn’t know you had inside you. And it doesn’t matter how many new haircuts you get, or gyms you join, or how many glasses of chardonnay you drink with your girlfriends… you still go to bed every night going over every detail and wonder what you did wrong or how you could have misunderstood. And how in the hell for that brief moment you could think that you were that happy. And sometimes you can even convince yourself that he’ll see the light and show up at your door. And after all that, however long all that may be, you’ll go somewhere new. And you’ll meet people who make you feel worthwhile again. And little pieces of your soul will finally come back. And all that fuzzy stuff, those years of your life that you wasted, that will eventually begin to fade. Iris Simpkins (Kate Winslet) from The Holiday

If it weren’t for her, there would never have been an empty space, or the need to fill it. Nicole Krauss

By forgiving and choosing to move on, one takes the power back to morph it into positive energy. Eugenia Tripputi

Life moves on, whether we act as cowards or heroes. Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, then to accept life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in the end. What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy, and strength, if faced with an open mind. Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such. Henry Miller

Caitlyn isn’t someone to get over. She’s someone to come to terms with, the way you have to come to terms with your parents, your siblings. You can’t deny they ever happened. You can’t deny you ever loved them, love them still, even if loving them causes you pain. Judy Blume

The Real is ever-present, like the screen on which the cinematographic pictures move. While the picture appears on it, the screen remains invisible.
