Oh, come on. I'm kidding. Your situation is very different from mine. I mean, Jane was a poet. No one, under any circumstances, should ever live with a poet.

Real people are over there," he said, pointing to the museum. "And they're messy, imperfect, odd, sometimes infuriating, and at other times completely brilliant. But you'll never find real people in that nice, tidy concept you've built for yourself in your mind. You have to get out and join them.

When I look at a person—at Zane in this case—I think I am seeing Zane. But what I am missing is the fact I am seeing Zane. And since I am the person who is seeing, I'm not seeing a world that is separate from me but am rather seeing my own interaction with the world. So, what I'm seeing is not Zane per se, but rather my relational intersection with him. In fact, relationality goes even further than that. It's not just that I am seeing Zane; it's also that I'm seeing a Zane who is in response to me.

She paused to sniff the air and made a face. "Is something burning?"

....It was my first shift alone in a busy kitchen and I suddenly understood why all chefs I'd ever worked with hated front of the house. It took every part of me not to fling a pizza cutter across the kitchen like ninja star.

We've come to use the word "evolution" as though it were a resolutely positive thing, but all it means is that the species best-adapted for a particular environment survive, and the others die out.

Caring for, supporting and warming the hearts of men is women's god-given role, and, without fail, performing it makes women beautiful. They become godesses.

If Eddie had been Riley’s friend, he wasn’t that for Andrew. That friendship was a muted fraction of the real thing, the marrow-thing, that tied them together. Through the cavern and their hauntings since, through a life spent with Eddie keeping him leashed but cared for at the same time, he couldn’t find a label that fit where he needed it to go. Maybe instead, just a hard stop: he was yours.

Healing from toxic relationship trauma

People are not good or evil. They are good AND evil. That does not make abuse any less harmful, or love any less real. In order to heal, we must understand that BOTH love and abuse can genuinely be present in a relationship, and love does not remove the need to take action when harmful behavior is present.

Sometimes, healing makes you realize that you deserve better – better treatment, a better relationship, and a better life. However, the only reason you're holding onto the old is because it has become your comfort zone. Remember, magic happens when you decide that enough is enough and take action to step away from what's not serving you and your higher self.
