My dearest friend has recently published a book, and I can’t recommend it enough -especially if you know German
It’s titled Mein Leben dreht sich in einem Koffer “My Life Revolves Around a Suitcase”
I’m only halfway through yet I’ve already found myself in tears
The book touches on a deeply sensitive, yet incredibly important subject -the path to asylum-
Through intimate stories and life-defining choices, it shines a light on realities that often remain untold

But it was the beginning of something
that one might one day call ‘the future.’
I sat on the seat,
my suitcase resting on my lap,
and thought:
My life truly revolves around a suitcase.
And as long as I carry it—
I also carry myself
that one might one day call ‘the future.’

because love is not about the way someone holds you when you’re beautiful, it’s about the way they look at you when you’ve failed. it’s about the way they react when you’re wrong, when you’re lost, when you’re not your best self.
