Long nights.Coffee stained books. Dark circles. Half full cups scattered around a dimly lit room. Heavy rain hitting off a window. Water filling the gutters. Tchaikovsky playing quietly on a record player. A neighboring houses window open wide enough to hear the soft violin chords. Shy smiles at books. Half closed eyes. Soft hums

The ebooks werenโt enough โcoz I want to highlight and annotate tons of freakinโ good lines.
โThe washing of the feet and the sacrament of the Eucharist: two expressions of one and the same mystery of love entrusted to the disciples, so that, Jesus says, โas I have doneโฆ so also must you do.โโ (Jn 13: 15)
โ Pope John Paul II
Jesus suffered a lot before he ressurected. And just like him, behind all my sufferings, victory awaits. I just have to love unconditionally and follow His lead.
โHe will provide the way and the means, such as you could never have imagined. Leave it all to Him, let go of yourself. Lose yourself on the Cross, and you will find yourself entirely.โ
โ St. Catherine of Siena
God is a great provider, so do not fret. The right path is laid for those who believe in Him and who are ready to lose everything in order to follow His lead.
โWe must understand that sadness is an ocean, and sometimes we drown, while other days we are forced to swim.โ
And today is not the day where I am able to swim. Overthinking and sadness are drowning me. I canโt lose her yet. Not now, not in the days to come. She still has to witness a lot of milestones of mine.
โYou think the dead we loved ever truly leave us? You think that we donโt recall them more clearly than ever in times of great trouble? Your father is alive in you, Harry, and shows himself plainly when you have need of him.โ

I miss my mom a lot.๐ฅบ I promise that she will forever be alive in my heart and in my mind. And, I know that she will never abandon me and my brother. She is always here to guide us. Death can never be a barrier for us to feel her great and eternal love.
