What a terrible thing it is to wound someone you really care for and to do it so unconsciously.
Haruki MurakamiAs if to build a fence around the fatal emptiness inside her, she had to create a sunny person that she became. But if you peeled away the ornamental egos that she had built, there was only an abbys of nothingness and the intense thirst that came with it. Though she tried to forget it, the nothingness would visit her periodically - on a lonely rainy afternoon, or at dawn when she woke up from a nightmare. What she needed at such times was to be held by someone, anyone.
Haruki MurakamiSo the fact that Iโm me and no one else is one of my greatest assets. Emotional hurt is the price a person has to pay in order to be independent.
