Kindle Notes & Highlights
losing a loved one is never really “starting over.” More like “continuing without.”
She says everyone you lose here, you find again there. Our family is all together.
“Anger, regret, worry. . . . They disappear once you are here. . . . Don’t lose yourself . . . inside yourself . . .”
I’m saying people in grief can imagine many things. It makes them feel better. It doesn’t make it real.
The end is not the end.”
Knowing heaven is what heals us on earth.
There is life after this life.
Sometimes, love brings you together even as life keeps you apart.
When love dries in a marriage, the children become mortar for the bricks. When the children leave, the bricks just sit atop each other. When the children die, the bricks tumble.
It never goes away! There’s a reminder every damn hour, another little rip in your heart.
