An ode to life, a memory of wavering desire, and a reminder of why there is hope.

This book was so beautiful poetic. I think it handled a beautiful balance between the desire of wanting something new and also being unable to imagine anything better. I loved how it really tackled how easy it is to feel like you want different choices. Or that the life you're living is a failure and that if you had only changed one thing, made one different choice, then you'd be happier. For some, that may be the case. But for many, our problem isn't going to be fixed by running away. Instead, we should focus on the present. Find joy in things around us. Learn from our regrets to take more chances and try new things. Sure everything isn't going to magically be perfect. But even a perfect life has cracks. That's the human nature. 

I feel this books is great for everyone. For those who struggle with their mental health, it's a great eye-opener and really allows you time to reflect. And for anyone else, it really helps paint the picture of what those struggling are going through.
