Quote by Nora Roberts

“…you stepped back, you squared your shoulders, and you showed you were willing to face what life had dealt you. That takes courage, Margo—much more—than leaping into the void. I had people to turn to. So do we all. It’s only fools and egotists who think no one will be there to lend a hand. And bigger food and bigger egotists who don’t reach out.”

But the lion…” She sighed. “The lion is wonderful and all the beasts of the earth are not much beside it.”

“Maybe you are in this sunset hour to make peace with your loss, maybe your life is altered beyond any repair, yet at this moment as the sun comes down and peace has you in its arms, how you find yourself again is about how you learn to live at peace with your loss, how you carry what cannot be carried, how you trudge through the dense agony and ultimately how you come out alive for as unsettling as it may be...when the waters settle, the sun comes out. It may not be the life you asked for, it may not be the life you hoped for, yet there is a life to be lived on the other side of loss, if only you can tear the night.”
