“... I have waited for this day, and grief faded with time.
Or did it? Perhaps grief never leaves us but is merely drowned out by a flood of life overwhelming it. Perhaps the wound that bled once is bleeding still, and I did not notice it until now.”

But I made me stronger. I made me into a survivor.”

“...but grief, he'd discovered, was not an experience you went through once and then 'moved on' (as the idiotic popular phrase would have it). The truth was that it came over you in successive waves - waves separated by periods of numbness, periods of forgetfulness, periods of ordinary living.”

“Well-wishers will tell you that wounds heal over time.
Don't believe them.
The only thing time heals is other people's memories. Surprisingly soon, they forget about your tragedy. They move on. They forget that your pain is as constant as your heartbeat.
Gift it time, they say. Things will get easier, they say. I can't remember how many times a well-intentioned family friend or a sincerely concerned observer assured me of this so-called "fact">
You'll get over it. You have a future. You'll be okay.
It's all a lie.”
