“When people preface their sympathies to tragedy with “as a mother” or “as a father,” they may think they are enhancing their feelings, but what they are doing is reinforcing the belief that there is less compassion in those who are not parents, which is not true.”

“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 the 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.”
