Quote
it ends or it doesn't. that's what you say. that's how you get through it. the tunnel, the night, the pain, the love. it ends or it doesn't. if the sun never comes up, you find a way to live without it. if they don't come back, you sleep in the middle of the bed, learn how to make enough coffee for yourself. adapt. adjust. it ends or it doesn't. it ends or it doesn't. we do not perish.

“you can’t skip chapters, that’s not how life works. you have to read every line, meet every character. you won’t enjoy all of it. hell, some chapters will make you cry for weeks. you will read things you don’t want to read, you will have moments where you don’t want the pages to end. but, you have to keep going. stories keep the world revolving. live yours, don’t miss out.”
