The lies we tell for love are the lightest shade of white.

Voices from my past trespass in my present, whispering through the cracks in the windows and floorboards, disguised as the sound of the sea. 

She is a woman who never hides her seasons; she is winter all year round. 

The future is a promise we can still choose whether to keep. The past is a promise we've already broken.

I think knowing you might die sooner rather than later does make a person live life differently. Death is a life-changing deadline, and I'm forever in debt to everyone who helped me outstay my welcome.I do my best to pay it forward. I try to be kind to others, as well as to myself, and rarely sweat the small stuff these days. I might not have much in terms of material possessions, but that sort of thing never really mattered to me… Like my favorite resident says every time she sees me: the secret to having it all is knowing that you already do.

I wonder if other people look forward to seeing their families but dread it at the same time the way I always seem to.

Nana shook her head while searching for it, and her curly white hair seemed to dance. I wondered if mine would look like that when I was older. Then I remembered that I would never be old enough to have white hair, and it made me feel so sad. It's odd, the little things that used to upset me. Most people dont want gray or white hair, but in that moment, I did. Maybe people wouldn't complain about getting old all the time if they were scared that they never would.
