Finding Chika: A Little Girl, an Earthquake, and the Making of a Family

by Mitch Albom

You can get used to everything in life, I suppose. Even this.

Maybe when you put your loved ones down on paper, you forever accept that reality of them, and maybe I don’t want to accept this reality, that Chika is gone, that words on paper are all I get.

You can’t forget someone you love.

We have names we are given and names that just attach to us,

It takes a special strength to take care of a child, Chika, and a whole different strength to admit you cannot.
