The Twins

I like to think that somewhere out there, on a planet exactly like ours, two people exactly like you and me made totally different choices and that, somewhere, we're still together. 

That's enough for me.

This really broke my heart. But thank you for saying what I've been avoiding for ages.

My heart just hurt. But at the same time I hoped the same thing.

It'll have to be enough for all of us. There will always be that next world, those choices we did or didn't make, the wedding dresses and the regrets that will never happen.

I'm feeling this very tragically right now. =(
Thank you for articulating it so beautifully.

i found your blog less than a week ago and i've read a lot of the posts. it was this quote on someone's myspace that led me to discover it. and i just quoted it to my ex.

so thank you.
for writing it for me.

Untill the sun grows cold and the stars grow old.

I know this feeling. But you? You'll never settle. You're why we have tomorrow.

i'd like to think of it that way. sadly it's not enough for me. does that make me utterly selfish?

This one has always hit me in a hard way after losing my beautiful wife for my selfishness. A day has not passed where I think about what she is going. I sit outside staring at the stars, wondering if she is looking at them too. Just to know that we may not be seeing the same stars together, just miles away. I love you Amy
