“...there is something so awful, something so gross about watching someone who loves you struggle to believe what you both know, deep down, is partially a lie.”
-An Invisible Sign Of My Own, Aimee Bender
I read this line today and it popped off the page and smacked me right in the face. Sometimes books do that to me. I thoroughly enjoy that. I like it when life just lines up and something you happen to be reading (or listening to, or looking at) at the time just happens to be significant to you at that exact point. Like fate. Like something knows what you need to get past a tough point or to keep you going. But then maybe it's just me looking really hard for fate. Either way it makes me feel better and that's always good on days when you feel genuinely shitty about the world.
