“You want to give up and you start thinking maybe it’s a good idea because the pain of holding on … because then it wouldn’t hurt anymore. Because holding steady is- is-
There is this bad, really bad, sense of uncertainty, an uncertainty so painful, so asshole-clenching, that it becomes- It’s an awful thing to say, but it’s easier to let go and be split in half than it is to try and hold on, suffering and not knowing what is going to happen. That is courage. Taking your own fucking life in your own fucking hands when that is the hardest thing you can do. No one thinks of it. Everyone thinks they’d do the right thing, but that’s not true. They don’t understand how scary it is. How hard it is. No one understands unless they’ve been there. We’re there now, Jacob, and you’re gonna do the right thing despite the fear and despite the hurt.”
