“Sometimes the darkness wins. It creeps in like a thick, gray fog, covering everything as we stumble around, and when it finally lifts, we see what it has done, what it has taken from us and what it has left behind.”
― Alison Wisdom, We Can Only Save Ourselves

“We take pains, always, to assure our children of their safety; we remind them we will protect them. But we cannot control the way the earth moves, and a reality of living here, one we exchange for a beautiful home: sometimes the earth revolts. The sea churns with anger, cliffs crumble. The ground shakes, it splits open. It isn’t often—only enough to remind us everything has cracks, everything can break.”
