Gumi7 Quotes & Sayings

I begin to realize that my memory is a great catacomb, and that below my actual standing-ground there is layer after layer of historical ashes.

A careful nod to the certainty of today, the mystery of tomorrow. When a friend left, with little chance of seeing home, they said anoshe. When a loved one was dying, they said anoshe. When corpses were burned, bodies given back to the earth and souls to the stream, those left grieving said anoshe.

Anoshe brought solace. And hope. And the strength to let go. — V.E Schwab
