I almost stopped there, knowing that if I kept the words inside me, the magic moment would go and I could get away without expressing my true feeling. 'You have no idea how much the last few days have meant to me', I began. 'Meeting you has been the best thing that's ever happened to me'. I hesitated, knowing that if I stopped now, I'd never be able to say it to anyone. 'I love you', I whispered. I had always imagined it would cost too much to say those two words together, but it was not. In my whole life had been more sure of my words, and although I hoped someday I could hear from Savannah the same words, what mattered most was knowing that love was mine to give, without strings or expectations.
'Did you ever imagine something like this?', she wondered aloud. 'You and me, I mean?'.
'No', I said.
'It scared me a little'. My stomach flipped, and all at once, I was sure she didn't feel the same way. 'You don't have to say it back to me', I began, 'That's not what I said it -'
'I know', she interrupted. 'You don't understand, I wasn't scared because you told me, I got scared because I wanted to say it too, I love you, John'.
Nadie sabe lo que hace mientras actua correctamente, pero de lo que esta mal uno siempre es consciente.
Thank you for coming into my life and giving me joy. Thank you for loving me and receiving my love in return. Thank you for the memories I will cherish forever. But most of all, thank you for showing me that there will come a time when I can eventually let you go.
+ Your mother and I want you to know that you were right not to give up on your gift, is who you are and is who your mother is, and we should never.. I should never deny that again.
- We call it a gift for a reason. It allows us to be able to help people in ways that other can't and we have to respect that, learn from it, take care of it and never hide it from each other again, okay? Deal?
* Deal.
+ Good night, sweetie.
- I meant what I said, you know. You were my hero tonight.
* Just like you are, mom, everyday.
The saddest people I've ever met in life are the ones who don't care deeply about anything at all.
Estoy harta de intentar demostrarle a todo el mundo lo que valgo. Se lo que puedo hacer, se de lo que soy capaz, asique no pienso matarme intentando hacerte cambiar de opinion. Pero quiero que tengas en cuenta una cosa: Cuando vuelvas la vista atras y extrañes lo que podriamos haber tenido... acordate que fuiste vos. La decision fue tuya.
Yo estaba dispuesta a correr el riesgo y meterme de lleno en esto. Sos vos el que te das por vencido.
I would rather be standing outside in the freezing cold with you..
than be warm in the arms of someone else.
I learned my lesson from him. People hurt you. People can hurt you more than pain can itself. He hurt me more than any injury I ever had, those wounds were temporary. They left a mark on my skin, but not on my heart. I loved him and he left, and took my heart with him. That pain wasn't temporary, it didn't leave a mark, but it certainly never left my mind. It's permanent in my heart.
I forgive him for leaving. It's his life, he can do whatever he wants with it, even if it means hurting other people along the way. That's what life is. We try to be good, but we destroy others, sometimes without even knowing.
I forgive him, but I can't forget what he did to me.
You're going to come across people in your life who will say all the right words at all the right times. But in the end, it's always their actions you should judge them by.
It's actions, not words, that matters.
All right. You know what? I get it. You've got faith. That's - hey, good for you! I'm sure it makes things easier. I'll tell you who else had faith like that: My gradma. She used to tell me, when she tucked me in, that angels were watching over us, but she was wrong. There was nothing protecting her. There's no higher power, there's no God. I mean, there's just chaos, and violence, and random unpredictable evil that comes out of nowhere and rips you to shreds.
So, you want me to believe in this stuff? I'm going to need to see some really hard proof. You got any?
Tragedies happen. What are you gonna do, give up? Quit? No.
I realize now that when your heart breaks, you got to fight like hell to make sure you still alive, because you are.
And that pain you feel? That's life. The confusion and fear? That's there to remind you that somewhere out there is something better, and that something is worth fighting for.
