Quote by Tracy Deonn

“It’s not an identical pain that we all meet one day when death finds us. It’s a monster, personalized by our love and memories to devour us just so. Grief is suffering, tailored.”

“How do you learn to cherish yourself, your life, when grief has made it unrecognizable?

“The emotions of grief are ageless. Widows often feel they have lost their purpose in life. The worst part of a widow’s day is when her comforters leave. Every part of her daily routine has a kink in it, especially when it’s time to go to sleep. Going to bed without hearing someone say, goodnight, feels like leaving the period off the end of a sentence. Michael Ben Zehabe, Ruth: a woman’s guide to husband material, pg 18”
