5 Quotes by Kristin Albright

I looked down at our hands, our fingers woven around one another. A perfect visual of what a relationship should be. Two people whose lives were perfectly intertwined – whose truths ran seamlessly together.

I saw her everywhere I went and in everything that was beautiful.

But there’s no rewind and no fast-forward – just blink after unexpected blink. It doesn’t seem fair how fast the good blinks seem to pass us by.

I felt as if I were living just above the surface of my life. It was lonely and utterly exhausting trying to make sure that everything was perfect all the time. No truth left unsaid, no hand or surface unwashed. Whoever said that high school was the best time of our lives definitely did not have OCD.

Maybe that’s what life is – one giant series of blinks. The problem is, you never know which ones will become your story until after they pass.
