The Collected Regrets of Clover

tals

The most important thing is never to look away from someone’s pain . . . Giving someone the chance to be seen at their most vulnerable is much more healing than any words.

Grief plays tricks on you that way—a familiar whiff of cologne or a potential sighting of your person in a crowd, and all the knots you’ve tied inside yourself to manage the pain of losing them suddenly unravel.

That’s the thing about loneliness: no one ever chooses it.

this book was absolutely beautiful. it felt like a warm hug. this month has been extraordinarily terrible because of the loss of my childhood dog and my grandpa. grief is so persistent and what i’ve learned from this book and my therapist is that grief never goes away. and that’s okay. because it never goes away. this book is giving me the courage to go on though. to live with the grief. 

my favorite quote were the ending words of this beautiful and amazing book: “And instead of constantly asking ourselves the question of why we’re here, maybe we should be savoring a simpler truth: We are here.”

I adored reading this book. It was lovely and sad and heart breaking and hopeful all wrapped up in one book.
