Things had always seemed so simple when we were wrapped in each other, as if the pressures of our lives just fell away. But in one night, everything had changed. Johnathon's life hung in the balance and Bryce was gone. A media storm waited for us outside. It was impossible to ignore who the woman in my arms was. Silently, suffocatingly, the weight of her world pressed down on us. As I looked ahead, to the rest of the summer, to the fall and winter months beyond, I realized that nothing would be simple and perhaps never would be again. .Giselle Fox
About This Quote
In the middle of a storm, you have to have a plan. You can't just sit around and hope for the best. If you do, the storm will knock the plan apart and cause more problems than it solves. It's just impossible to fight a storm.
The only way to beat it is to keep going even when you're scared or lost or alone or without hope. You have to trust that things will be all right if you just keep moving forward through the storm. That's what Bryce and I both did and we came out on the other side stronger and happier than we were before.
We learned that everything is far more complicated than we thought and we had to come together in order for us to survive. But we survived and we're still here, still together, and we're stronger than ever.
