"Sharing tales of those we've lost is how we keep from really losing them."
"It’s funny. I met a man once who did a lot of mountain climbing. I asked him which was harder, ascending or descending? He said without a doubt descending, because ascending you were so focused on reaching the top, you avoided mistakes.The backside of a mountain is a fight against human nature,” he said. “You have to care as much about yourself on the way down as you did on the way up."
"I realized when you look at your mother, you are looking at the purest love you will ever know."
"She put one hand on mine. “When someone is in your heart, they’re never truly gone. They can come back to you, even at unlikely times."
"But she wasn’t around, and that’s the thing when your parents die, you feel like instead of going in to every fight with backup, you are going into every fight alone."
