Notable Quotes

• I never just gave myself the time to process anything. Like, it was stuff that he did to me. Like, I never cry. I didn't, I wasn't angry. It was as if I didn't have any emotions. 
• I didn't rest. I didn't allow myself to feel the feelings. I just kept on going. Right. I kept on going in the midst of everything. I kept on showing up; I kept on doing my business. I kept going to all the games, my kids' games. I kept on volunteering at the schools. I kept on doing all these things. But even that was because, again, even being a workaholic, it was a way for me to cope.
• I think sometimes, we stay in situations because what we have is like, it cannot even be a lot. But it's like, this is a, at least, I would have this thing like, well, at least I have a husband. At least I'm still married.
