But life isn’t a movie, or a book (not even this one). Life is life; and until the very second you die, there is no lasting escape from it. In life, sometimes horrible things just happen. Sometimes there is no new lesson to be learned, only tragedy to be endured the best one can. And sometimes the best a person can do is hang on as hard as they can, keep putting one foot forward in front of the other, and try to do what they know to be the right thing until they reach the end of that particular sad leg of their journey.
