The Rescue

Youth offers the promise of happiness, but life offers the realities of grief.

People come, people go-  they'll drift in and out of your life, almost like characters in a favorite book. When you finally close the cover, the characters have told their story and you start up again with another book, complete with new characters and adventures. Then you find yourself focusing on the new ones, not the ones from the past.


Everyone has crap in their background, everyone has things they wish they could undo. But most people don't go around doing their best to screw up their present lives because of it.

Loving someone and having them love you back is the most precious thing in the world.

It's what made it possible for me to go on, but you don't seem to realize that. Even when love is right there in front of you, you choose to turn away from it. You're alone because you want to be.

It took me a long time to realize that distance can ruin even the best of intentions.

These days she simply did the best job she could, accepting the good with the bad.
