Somebody's Else's Life

You can't live somebody else's life for them. They have to make their own choices. And sometimes all we can do is learn to live with them.

Amanda Hocking from “Wake”

 

I think one of the hardest things to deal with is knowing that your loved one or friend is making a giant mistake. It's like watching a train wreck because it is so horrible to look at but you can’t turn it away. Unfortunately, sometimes there is nothing we can do but hope that our loved one can make it through their mistake in one piece. Gemma Fisher, the main character of “Wake” found herself in a situation that changed her beyond her recognition but she still held on during this journey.
