This was a doozie - coz I am a sucker for happy endings.
Even the most horrific trauma can eventually be healed.
“Do your time before it does you” is all about
taking charge of one’s life, facing challenges head-on, and embracing personal responsibility.
Trent Dalton’s quote from another novel:
Because sadness is the truest emotion,”“Happiness isn’t to be trusted. It’s a bald-faced liar. But the truth of your sadness enriches every other thing inside you, especially your joy. You shouldn’t be afraid to go to the place that makes you sad, Molly Hook. The more you go to that dark place inside you, the lighter it gets. You go there enough times, you realize that dark place is actually your sacred place. That place is all of you and the tears you take from that place are just the darkness leaking out, precious drop by precious drop. You following me?
