Before I fall

Such an awesome book about Death. 

Memorable Passages 

"If you're ever wishing for things to go back to the way they were. You just have to look up."

"It amazes me how easy it is for things to change, how easy it is to start off down the same road you always take and wind up somewhere new. Just one false step, one pause, one detour, and you end up with new friends or a bad reputation or a boyfriend or a breakup. It’s never occurred to me before; I’ve never been able to see it. And it makes me feel, weirdly, like maybe all of these different possibilities exist at the same time, like each moment we live has a thousand other moments layered underneath it that look different."

Lulay

I miss Lulay most days. Every time I think about her, tears well up and fills me with melancholy and happiness at the same time. I know that she's in my heart and will always be there. I miss her a lot.

Endings.

Dearest Sweetie,
 
Read this anytime you thought that you won't meet anyone....He didn’t like you and it's still hard to hear. And yes he broke your heart in a million little pieces but your worth better. Those early morning hookups, the random calls, the broken promises were nothing, yeah they were fun and that was it. Don’t ignore the fact that sometimes the memories will come by...move on. Wallowing does no good, and the memory is important. So yes, keep those lovely memories with you, because it is very unlikely your future husband will love Vanessa Paradis, Frank Sinatra as much as you do. And if he does, because he will be the best man for you and make you extremely satisfied and happy, look back with a smile at those times. Because you loved them. And they killed you but they were great. Sitting together watching tv, flirting with him. There were good times and you were friends but that is it. And he broke your heart but it will only make you love someone even more, because he won’t do that to you.

Gretchen, you’re beautiful and worth it. Mov. Love you.
