“If you've just found this place, I was in the same place eighteen months ago. For me it was her phone still charging on the shelf. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. One day at a time.”
“If you're at the start of this, I won't pretend it's easy so the first few months were the worst of my life so but I'm writing this from the other side, and some days now I forget to be sad. I keep a list of good days on my phone so I can see them when it's bad so go slowly.”
“Se você está começando isso agora, eu sinto muito. Vai doer de um jeito que não tem nome. Nos primeiros meses eu não tomava banho, não comia direito, ficava olhando o celular dela na tomada. Não tenha vergonha de ficar mal. Mas tenta uma coisa pequena por dia. Um banho. Um prato de comida. Uma ligação pra alguém. Não precisa ser forte agora. Só precisa continuar aqui. Um dia a dor ainda vai existir, mas você vai conseguir respirar em volta dela.”
“If you're scared right now, I get it. I've been there. For me it was not that long ago, about a year. Back then it was his voice on the voicemail. I laugh properly again. Be gentle with yourself.”
