Don't ever break for someone who couldn't bend for you.

I can't change where I'm from, but I can change where I'm going.

I never felt open in any way. I would never impulsively ring people and assume that they’d want to see me, or just go ‘round. I always had to sit down and think very hard before I knocked on anybody’s door. And consequently, I never really knocked.

It’s really a wonder that I haven’t dropped all my ideals, because they seem so absurd and impossible to carry out. Yet I keep them, because in spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart.
SET THE FIRE TO THE THIRD BAR.
I find the map and draw a straight line
Over rivers, farms, and state lines
The distance from ‘A’ to where you’d be
It’s only finger-lengths that I see
I touch the place where I’d find your face
My finger in creases of distant dark places
I hang my coat up in the first bar
There is no peace that I’ve found so far
The laughter penetrates my silence
As drunken men find flaws in science
Their words mostly noises
Ghosts with just voices
Your words in my memory
Are like music to me
I’m miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
I, I pray that something picks me up
And sets me down in your warm arms
After I have travelled so far
We’d set the fire to the third bar
We’d share each other like an island
Until exhausted, close our eyelids
And dreaming, pick up from
The last place we left off
Your soft skin is weeping
A joy you can’t keep in
I’m miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
And I, I pray that something picks me up
and sets me down in your warm arms
I’m miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
and I, I pray that something picks me up
and sets me down in your warm arms

Grief may be a thing we all have in common. But, it looks different on everyone. It isn’t just death we have to grieve. It’s life. It’s loss. It’s change. And, when we wonder why it has to suck so much sometimes, has to hurt so bad. The thing that we have to remember is that it can turn on a dime. That’s how you stay alive. When it hurts so much you can’t breathe. That’s how you survive. By remembering that one day, somehow, impossibly, you won’t feel this way. It won’t hurt this much. Grief comes in it’s own time for everyone. In it’s own way. So, the best we can do, the best anyone can do is try for honesty. The really crappy thing, the very worst part of grief, is that you can’t control it. The best we can do is try to let ourselves feel it when it comes. And let it go when we can. The very worst part, is that the minute you think you’re past it, it starts all over again. And always, every time, it takes your breath away.Grey’s Anatomy, 6x02 Goodbye
