“Your life is inescapable. Unless you decide to escape it.”

“I said I hated life. You said you hated life. We decided to hate it together.”

“By the time I got there, you’d already decided. And I quickly decided to let you decide. You were already seeing the rooms as ours, and that was enough for me.”

“But I want to feel like life matters. Ihad something real with you, but then the realness scared me. I decided to go for other things instead.”

“I am learning that a life isn't real unless someone else knows its reality. And I want my life to be real.”

“We are not taught "love thy neighbor unless their skin is a different color from yours " or "love thy neighbor unless they don't make money as you do" or "love thy neighbor unless they don't share your belies." We are taught "love thy neighbor". No exceptions. We are all in this together - every single one of us. And the only way we are going to survive as a society is through compassion. A Great Community does not mean we all think the same things or do the same things. It simply means we are willing to work together and are willing to love despite our differences.”

“Your life is your life. You can't live it in compartments.Each place you're in has a door open at either end.”
