&ldquo;You will lose someone you can&rsquo;t live without,and your heart will be badly broken, and the bad news is that you never completely get over the loss of your beloved. But this is also the good news. They live forever in your broken heart that doesn&rsquo;t seal back up. And you come through. It&rsquo;s like having a broken leg that never heals perfectly&mdash;that still hurts when the weather gets cold, but you learn to dance with the limp.&rdquo; <br /> ― Anne Lamott

I have lived eighty years of life and know nothing for it, but to be resigned and tell myself that flies are born to be devoured by spiders and man by his sorrows--Voltaire
