That intimate moment between you and the book you have just read the last words of, where you sit there taking in the enormity of what you have just finished.

in my language we don't say 'babe' or 'baby' but we say 'jaan' or 'jaani'. literally, jaan means life. i grew up hearing my dad call my mom 'jaani' and my grandfather call my grandma 'jaan' and i never really thought it was anything special. but then i realized they are calling each other 'life'. its just so beautiful that you would normally address someone as your life while doing the most normal mundane things.
"jaan, I'm home."
"jaani, pass me the water"
How wild is it that every version of you probably exists still, somewhere, in someone’s memory? The messy you, crying on the floor exists still in your mind. The happy, sun-soaked you, exists in your best friend’s memory. No part of you has died, all parts of us exist always, simultaneously and hidden.
“There’s a Japanese phrase that I like: koi no yokan. It doesn’t mean love at first sight. It’s closer to love at second sight. It’s the feeling when you meet someone that you’re going to fall in love with them. Maybe you don’t love them right away, but it’s inevitable that you will.”
— Nicola Yoon, The Sun Is Also a Star
