It's so beautiful how happy humans can make other humans. How broken, how fulfilled, how angry, how complete we can make each other feel. How much impact a person can have over another's life. How one person or multiple people can change the entire trajectory of your life. Your whole being. For better or for worse. It's all so glorious don't you think? Even when it hurts. It's so fucking magnificent. What a privilege it is to feel.

Lol why am I literally fucking distraught??? This book destroyed me. It shredded me from the inside out. No seriously, I mean it ripped out all of my organs, chewed them up, and spit them out. Utterly obsessed with how hollow yet satiated I feel after reading this, wow.
