“My friends, quite rightly, thought I was insane to have become so quickly obsessed with someone I didn鈥檛 know. But they were also used to it 鈥 me finding a new love interest had always been like a greedy child opening a toy on Christmas Day.

“It may seem that life is difficult at times but it鈥檚 really as simple as breathing in and out,鈥 she read. 鈥淩ip open hearts with your fury and tear down egos with your modesty. Be the person you wish you could be, not the person you feel you are doomed to be. Let yourself run away with your feelings. You were made so that someone could love you. Let them love you.”

It鈥檚 only afterwards that it becomes anything like a story at all. When you are telling it, to yourself or to someone else.”
