We each have our hiding places and we each put up with the little quirks of the people we love.
Cecelia AhernI write human stories. I write about people. Not as a product of their environment. But from the stance that everybody is made of the same thing.
Cecelia AhernSlow down. Stop trying to do everything now, now, now. Hold up the people behind you for all you care, feel them kicking at your heels but maintain your pace. Don't let anybody dictate your speed.
Cecelia AhernAlex: Rosie, I wanted you to be the first person to no that Iโve decided to become a heart surgeon! Rosie: Cool, does it pay well? Alex: Rosie, itโs not about the money. Rosie: Where I come from, itโs all about the money. Probably because I donโt have any.
Cecelia AhernYou deserve someone who loves you with every single beat of his heart, someone who thinks about you constantly, someone who spends every minute of every day just wondering what youโre doing, where you are, who youโre with, and if youโre OK. You need someone who can help you reach your dreams and protect you from your fears. You need someone who will treat you with respect, love every part of you, especially your flaws. You should be with someone who could make you happy, really happy, dancing on air happy.
Cecelia AhernHolly smiled weakly. Gerry would know exactly how she was feeling, he would know exactly what to say and he would know exactly what to do. He would give her one of his famous hugs and all her problems would melt away. She grabbed a pillow from her bed and hugged it tight. She couldn't remember the last time she hugged someone, really hugged someone. And the depressing thing was that she couldn't imagine ever embracing anyone the same way again.
