Michael Marshall Smith quote #424 from Only Forward

How many times have you tried to talk to someone about something that matters to you tried to get them to see it the way you do And how many of those times have ended with you feeling bitter resenting them for making you feel like your pain doesnt have any substance after allLike when youve split up with someone and you try to communicate the way you feel because you need to say the words need to feel that somebody understands just how pissed off and frightened you feel. The problem is they never do. Plenty more fish in the sea theyll say or Youre better off without them or Do you want some of these potato chips They never really understand because they havent been there every day every hour. They dont know the way things have been the way that its made you the way it has structured your world. Theyll never realise that someone who makes you feel bad may be the person you need most in the world. They dont understand the history the background dont know the pillars of memory that hold you up. Ultimately they dont know you well enough and they never can. Everyones alone in their world because everybodys life is different. You can send people letters and show them photos but they can never come to visit where you live.Unless you love them. And then they can burn it down.
