" Maybe that’s what coming to terms with grief was. It wasn’t that one day you suddenly got over it and felt better, back to the way you’d felt before. It was that you learned to live around it, that you struggled on living through it, that you grew yourself beyond it, until one day your life and your love were bigger than your pain and emptiness. You never got back to normal, but you could, if you were brave, get to somewhere good. "
