Life and Other Complications

Dedication:

Dear _____,

I don’t know your name. But I know a few things about you.

I know that you’ve felt isolated in your heartache and burdened by your secrets.

I know that you sometimes wonder if you’re too broken to ever be genuinely loved.

This is by far the hardest story I’ve ever written. And there were so many days when I wanted to give up on it and write something easy. But I didn’t. Because of you.

You needed to be reminded that you are strong, and you are brave. And no matter how dark these last few chapters of your life have been, your story isn’t finished. It’s just beginning.

I hope that you’ll write your name on the space I left for you on the dedication page. Because I wrote this book for you.
