“Brothers and sisters in Christ frequently point to the lament psalms for those grieving. It’s often said they always end in hope. But not all do. Some end in unanswered pleas (Ps. 44, 74, 80, 88). In the whirlwind, God displayed power to Job, not answers (Job 38–41). When Lazarus died, Jesus didn’t offer Mary a sermon or remind her that he wasn’t in pain anymore. Jesus wept (John 11:32–35). Similarly, the pieces in this volume don’t always neatly resolve. They don’t always end in hopeful exhortations. Many end in silence. Silence is the sound of God listening.”

“Questa è una storia di gente perduta. Non morta o scomparsa, di gente persa. A volte perdere una persona è facile come perdere un bottone. È prezioso, dai per scontato che sia sempre lì, poi ti impigli in qualcosa, o un filo si allenta o si logora, e – senza manco accorgertene, così da un momento all’altro – il bottone non c’è più. Capita così, a volte, anche con le persone. Ti volti e non ci sono più.”

“And I am still mad. So mad. I can starve it, avoid it, rationalize it, manage it, talk about it in therapy, and eat it up in neat little points value. No matter how much weight I lose, I will never lose this one simple truth: I want my mom. I am so f***ing mad that she's gone. And that feeling will never, ever die.”
