"I think she was afraid to love sometimes. I think it scared her. She was the type to like things that are concrete, like the ocean. Something you could point to and know what it was. I think that's why she always struggled with God. And I think that’s why she struggled with love. She couldn't touch it. She couldn't hold on to it and make sure it never changed."
"Sometimes it's those things you can't touch that you need to hold on to the most."

Holding onto something we can't see or feel is really difficult... I make the biggest thing to hold on to those things though, they are the ones that bring the biggest happiness:)
