“So many of those things you say you can never be or will never do are the very things that make a person human and as painful as the human experience can be, it is uniquely ours. It can't be replicated. It can't be synthesized. It is meant to be temporary. This life and the relationships in it, they're all passing. As horrible and painful as that can be, we have to hold onto each other loosely. Till death do us part is the best case scenario in every relationship, whether it's a parent, or a child or a spouse. It sucks, but it's the hand we've been dealt.”
