"You will lose someone you can’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’t seal back up. And you come through. It’s like having a broken leg that never heals perfectly—that still hurts when the weather gets cold, but you learn to dance with the limp."

Beautiful.
Wow, that quote is beautiful and so true! Here is a quote from Mother Theresa that I like: "I have found the paradox that if I love until it hurts, then there is no hurt, only more love." And the picture it is written on shows a person's hand grasping another person's hand, obviously, comforting them.
Still praying for all of you.
