"Writers don’t write from experience, though many are resistant to admit that they don’t. I want to be clear about this. If you wrote from experience, you’d get maybe one book, maybe three poems. Writers write from empathy."

دیگران را ببخش، نه به خاطر اینکه لایق بخششند، به خاطر اینکه تو لایق آرامشی Forgive others, not because they deserve forgiveness, but because you deserve peace. It floors me how beautiful this is, and also how very much it was a thing I needed to hear.

Forgive others, not because they deserve forgiveness, but because you deserve peace.

It floors me how beautiful this is, and also how very much it was a thing I needed to hear.
