Pictures can be pretty deceptive.
Gayle Forman
And that's when I understand that I have been stained. Whether I'm still in love with him, whether he was ever in love with me, and no matter who he's in love with now, Willem changed my life. He showed me how to get lost, and then I showed myself how to get found.
Gayle Forman
Or maybe it's not a miracle. Maybe this is just life. When you open yourself up to it. When you put yourself in the path of it. When you say yes.
Gayle Forman
It's a good thing Kerry's dead, because that funeral would've sent him over the edge, Henry said.
Gayle Forman
There are like twenty people in that waiting room right now. Some of them are related to you. Some of them are not. But we're all your family.' She stops now. Leans over me so that the wisps of her hair tickle my face. She kisses me on the forehead. 'You still have a family,' she whispers.
Gayle Forman
Who says I breathe music? Who says I even breathe?
Gayle Forman
Travelling is like a talent, like whistling or dancing. And some people have it.
Gayle Forman
I have a feeling that once you live through something like this, you become a little bit invincible.
Gayle Forman
I've become to realize there's a world of difference between knowing something happened, even knowing why it happened, and believing it.
Gayle Forman
But then Mason touches my neck, to the spot on it where the cut from that night has since healed, and I pull away. He was right, after all it didn't leave a scar, though part of me wishes it had. At least I'd have some evidence, some justification of this permanence. Stains are even worse when you're the only one who can see them.
Gayle Forman
My stomach lurched, an appetizer before the full portion of heartache I had a feeling was going to be served at some point soon.
Gayle Forman
By that point, it’ll have been more than year since I met Lulu. Any sane person would say it’s too late. It already felt too late that first day, when I woke up in the hospital. But even so, I’ve kept looking. I’m still looking.
Gayle Forman
It's okay if you want to go. Everyone wants you to stay. I want you to stay more than I've ever wanted anything in my life. But that's what I want and I could see why it might not be what you want. So I just wanted to tell you that I understand if you go. It's okay if you have to leave us. It's okay if you want to stop fighting.
Gayle Forman
It's just one day, one twenty-four-hour period to get yourself through. - Adam
Gayle Forman
Traveling is not something you are good at. It is something you do. Like breathing.
Gayle Forman
A thousand suns rise from my chest.
Gayle Forman
In the calculus of feelings, you never really know how one person's absence will affect you more than another's.
Gayle Forman
Willem holds my wrist for a long moment, looking at that birthmark. Then he lifts it to his mouth. And though his lips are soft and his kiss is gentle, it feels like a knife jamming into the electrical socket. It feels like the moment when I go live
Gayle Forman
And that's just it, isn't it? That's how we manage to survive the loss. Because love, it never dies, it never goes away, it never fades, so long as you hang on to it.
Gayle Forman
That’s the thing you never expect about grieving, what a competition it is.
Gayle Forman
