You know, people who can spend an entire day in their back yard reading are my kind of people.
I, too, am grateful for your words, though they made me cry every single time. I will miss this, and I hope you know that if you ever want to write and have me listen again, I will do so without hesitation. Also, if you ever need the insight of a fellow heart patient, I'll be more than happy to offer my support. ❤️
Every entry has painted a vivid portrait of the girl you lost, and your love for her, and has also been an incredible resource of quotes to mull over and books I fancy I would read if my brain were a bit bigger. I'll miss your updates, and celebrate their absence, knowing you're following your heart.
I never met Nora. But, I can picture her, hear her, and even miss her because of your beautiful writing. You will probably never truly know the effect your posts here have had on all of us. Thanks to you, Anne, and Nick for allowing us into your minds and hearts through this journey. #team Nora forever. And, ever.
Kelly, it has been an honor and a privilege to be included in your life and to get to know your girl. I will miss this Friday evening ritual, but will continue to hold you, Anne, Nick & Benchley in my heart. #teamnoraforever
I've missed so many of your posts over the last few months. I will go back and read previous posts now and over time. I can't tell you how many quotes I have copied from your entries and pasted into my "Favorite Quotes" document. Thank you so much for sharing your stories, Nora's stories, your grief, and your tremendous love for your girl. Very grateful for people like you in, as you wrote, this violent and divided world. Nora and your writing have made the world more beautiful.
Thinking of you all and wishing you continued strength. Hoping you will continue writing privately as long as you need to. From your friends on Bosworth
Thank you Nora.
Much love to you and yours, always.
