Knowing what Dan’s face had looked like in Kabul, the night they’d spent in the hotel room. What he’d said. My light, my life, my sanity, my love. Nothing of that had been wrong. Not the sex, the kisses, the teenager oaths of staying together, always, rain, shine, life, death. I’d die for you. Live for me. Hold me. Fucking hold me. ↗

Every time I watch a movie with great special effects I think, ‘Wow. This is so much more lifelike than anything I’ve ever seen.’ The world needs to get with reality and use more computer generated images for our sunrises and landscapes. Or at least Claymation for snow days. Making inanimate snowmen isn’t helping our children make the right kinds of friends: they need to learn the hard way that all their attachments will melt away, that everyone must face life alone. ↗
