Question 26. What’s your favorite quote and why?

My favorite quote is from Dexter, and you may have seen it on my blogs and site. Yes, it’s a quote from a fictional character, but it fits me so well.

“They make it look so easy, connecting with another human being. It’s like no one told them it’s the hardest thing in the world.” -Dexter Morgan

I have a really hard time interacting with people, and when Dexter said this, after everything that had happened to him, and as he watched everyone around him easily and happily interacting with each other, well, it just hurt so much.

But it also made me realize that the interaction I do have with people is pretty impressive for someone like me. I’ve got friends, family who love me, and even though I struggle daily with interactions, I’m pulling this off well enough to have friends and family by my side.

I also really like, “Just because somebody doesn’t love you the way you want them to, it doesn’t mean they don’t love you with all they have.” That was by an anonymous person, but it really fits how my family views life.

We’re all whacked in our own way, we all have issues, and yet we’re all there for each other, and even if it’s not the way we’d like, we know we all care for and love each other. And that’s the best possible outcome you could hope for because you’re never going to get someone who loves you exactly the way you want them to.
