'The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, But in ourselves, that we are underlings.'
William Shakespeare ~ Julius Caesar
It really was a John Green summer for me. I read Will Grayson, Will Grayson, Paper Towns, Looking for Alaska, and have An Abundance of Katherines on the list for this fall.
The Fault in our Stars made the top of my summer reading list favorites. This book shares the story of Hazel, a young, teenage girl who has always been terminally ill. She meets August Waters at her cancer support group, and he changes the way she thinks about the world.
My favorite quote is from this book. It is one that I have reflected upon many times since I finished this book.
"Grief does not change you, Hazel, it reveals you."
I continually am reminded of this quote as I walk through challenges, as well as, have the privilege of watching and/or walking beside those who are experiencing a time of grief.
Powerful text....memorable summer of reading and experiencing the changes life continually brings!
until later~
