I’ve been on the verge of tears all day, like that uncomfortable lump in my throat and everything. You know your life is ‘too much’ when that’s how you spend your day. Not fun. I need something good to happen. Something to make me happy.

Some people meet the way the sky meets the earth— inevitably, and there is no stopping or holding back their love. It exists in a finished world, beyond the reach of common sense.
