I just miss you


1. “You will lose someone you can’t live without, and your heart will be badly broken, and the bad news is that you never completely get over the loss of your beloved. But this is also good news. They live forever in your broken heart that doesn’t seal back up. And you come through. It’s like having a broken leg that never heals perfectly that still hurts when the weather gets cold, but you learn to dance with the limp.

Anne Lamott

2. “The reality is that we don’t forget, move on, and have closure, but rather we honor, we remember and incorporate our deceased children and siblings into our lives in a new way.

Harriet Schiff
