" Sometimes you don’t realize
you are h o l d i n g yourself
together until you aren’t
anymore. Suddenly, you’re not the same
person you thought you were j u s t m o m e n t s   before. No. You are not okay.
You are not fine. But you will be. When I say, you will be okay, I do not mean you will wake up one day and be the same person you were before the pain. Pain changes a person. But, you will discover a
new version of yourself. One who has experienced the great sadness that only follows a great loss. One who knows the value of a good cry. One who knows that even after the coldest of winters, spring will still arrive. "
