Andy.E 26/11/2022Meus QUOTES de Maybe in another life - Taylor Jenkis Reid?Azul: ?
? "I close my eyes and let the emotion wash over me. I listen to what my heart and mind are trying to tell me. I am relieved and devastated. I am scared. I am angry. I am not sure if any of this is going to be OK."
? "I breathe so hard that I exhaust myself. I am dizzy with oxygen and anguish."
? "As if she will bear some of the pain for me, as if she can take some of it off my hands."
? "And I do. Because I am alive. I may be broken and scared. But I am alive."
? ?But there are no deal breakers here.?
? "I?m trying to be better at actually asking the questions I have instead of avoiding them."
? ?From experience, I can tell you that if you go around trying to figure out what?s fair in life or whether you deserve something or not, that?s a rabbit hole that is hard to climb out of.?
? "I realize I have no normal."
? "I want to try order instead of chaos."
? "And maybe that?s because I don?t have to be a hurricane."
? "But I suppose just because something is hard to understand, that doesn?t make it any less true."
? "This is me needing to learn that you have to face the truth of a situation head-on."
? "I don?t want to believe what a person says and ignore what he does. I don?t want to see only what I want to see."
? "I want to be realistic, for once. I want to be grounded. I want to make smart decisions."
? ?The point of the story is that you should always have faith in Hannah. Because even when it looks like she?s made a terrible mistake, she?s actually one step ahead of you. That?s the moral. Things will always work out for Hannah."
? "(...) have, for well over a decade, felt like a guest in my own family."
? "I care deeply what they think of me."
? "The difference between life and death could be as simple and as uncomfortably slight as a step you take in either direction."
? "In general, I find that when you are doing something you are not supposed to be doing, the best course of action is to act as if you are absolutely supposed to be doing it."
? "I am great at pretending everything is fine. I am great at hiding the truth. I almost believe it myself for a minute."
? "How we grab on to facts and consequences looking to blame or exonerate ourselves?"
? "Nine billion choices I?ve made over the course of my life could have changed where I am right now and where I?m headed. There?s no sense focusing on just one. Unless you want to punish yourself."
? "I happen to believe that it?s God,? she says. ?But it pushes us in the right direction, keeps us on the right path."
? ?You think too much,? he says. ?That?s your problem. You?re trying too hard to find the perfect answer when an answer will do.?
? "You don?t need to find the perfect thing all the time. Just find one that works, and go with it."
? "Life is unpredictable beyond measure."
? "And part of loving someone, part of being the recipient of trust, is telling the truth even when it?s awful."
? "Life is just a series of breaths in and out. All I really have to do in this world is breathe in and then breathe out, in succession, until I die. I can do that. I can breathe in and out."
? "(...) That it?s OK to reach a breaking point with this stuff. You have to have patience with yourself.?
? "Sometimes, despite how hard you try to fight your feelings, they show up in the glassiness of your eyes, the downward turn of your lips, the shakiness of your voice, and the lump in your throat."
? "When you sit there and wish things had happened differently, you can?t just wish away the bad stuff. You have to think about all the good stuff you might lose, too. Better just to stay in the now and focus on what you can do better in the future."
? "But sometimes I wish I got to decide what I was meant to do."
? "Because regardless of our destiny, we still have to answer for our actions. We make choices, big and small, every day of our lives, and those choices have consequences. We have to face those consequences head-on, for better or worse. We don?t get to erase them just by saying we didn?t mean to. Fate or not, our lives are still the results of our choices."
? "You can only forgive yourself for the mistakes you made in the past once you know you?ll never make them again."
? "It doesn?t matter if we don?t mean to do the things we do. It doesn?t matter if it was an accident or a mistake."
? "Because regardless of our destiny, we still have to answer for our actions. We make choices, big and small, every day of our lives, and those choices have consequences."
? "You have to talk about it, even when you aren?t talking about it. And maybe that?s OK. Maybe what?s important is that you have someone to listen."
? "And I?m learning not to read too much into good things. I?m learning just to appreciate the good while you have it in your sights. Not to worry so much about what it all means and what will happen next."
? "That?s what you do when you want something. You don?t look for reasons why it won?t work. You look for reasons why it will."
Rosa: ?
? "How do you mourn something like that? How do you mourn something you never knew you had? Something you never wanted but something real, something important."
? ?I know what it means to miss you,? he says. The light turns green, and he speeds down the boulevard. ?So you?ll have to find a pretty insurmountable problem if I?m going to let you go again.?
? ?A long time. Don?t feel like you need to trick me into admitting I?ve been hung up on you for years. I?m confident enough to say it outright.?
? ?Listen, I went to that bar hoping to get you alone, hoping to talk to you, to gauge how you felt. I tried on ten different shirts to find the right one. I bought gum and kept it in my back pocket in case I had bad breath. I stood in front of the mirror and tried to get my hair to look like I didn?t do my hair. For you. You are the only one. I danced with Katherine because I was nervous talking to you. And because I want to be honest with you, I?ll admit that I don?t know what I would have done if you had turned me down on Saturday, but no matter what I would have done, it would have been because I thought you weren?t interested. If you?re interested, I?m interested. And only in you.?
? "He smiles at me as if I?m the only person in the world."
? "Do you know how heartbroken I?d be to live in a world you weren?t in??
? "I feel like myself around him. And I like myself around him."
? "I will probably always love him on some level, always hold a spot for him in my heart. But dating again, being together, that would be moving backward, wouldn?t it?"
? "And just for tonight, I want to experience how it feels to be his, to be loved by him, to believe that this is the beginning of something."
? ?Because you are the kind of person who deserves a fuss made over her. That?s why. And I?m just the guy to do that.?
? ?I just sometimes hoped that I could have something more than just fine. Someone who made me feel like I hung the moon."
? "If you love someone, if you think you could make them happy for the rest of your life together, then nothing should stop you. You should be prepared to take them as they are and deal with the consequences. Relationships aren?t neat and clean. They?re ugly and messy, and they make almost no sense except to the two people in them."
? "(...)That?s what I think. I think if you truly love someone, you accept the circumstances; you don?t hide behind them.?
? "(...)I?ll follow your lead. I?ll be the person you need me to be. Just let me be a part of this, Hannah. Let me be with you.?
? ?Pretty soon I won?t be able to reach my feet.?
?Then I?ll put your socks on. What did I tell you? There?s nothing you can do to get rid of me,? he says.
?And you meant it??
?I meant it.?
? ?I?ve been going to bakeries for months hoping to find you."
? "I have waited for it for so long, have believed so strongly that it may never happen, that it proves as intimate a gesture as any I have ever experienced. "
? "I?m married to a man who became a father because he loved me and now loves me because I made him a father."
? "He always gets me any food I want, at any time of night."
