society in the fall - quotes and descriptions to inspire creative writing

Bella walked through the fall, her memories of good emotions woven to the real state of the world and her brain figuring out the best future that was still possible from this mess.

There are better and worse versions of loss. We are aiming for the better version because then we have the strongest base possible for rebuilding. That is our victory, it is the only one on the table, and it is a painful, sad and desperately awful form of success.

But, there you go.

The canopy was golden, an umbrella of divine hues - browns, golds and ruby - when the fall of society came. We walked upon this most natural of carpets beneath the same sky we saw yesteryear, yet the world once again was turning upon the axis of fate... and in that moment we had a chance to alter it... to make the future moments better than they otherwise would be.
