A few beautiful lines from one new reader:

“As I adjust to a life without them. It seems truly impossible, but your book is a handsome companion for the moment, something to literally cling to... Thank you very much, I’m really glad it made its way into my hands.”

If we live long enough and love deeply, grieving becomes a part of living. Many things end before we want them to. But similar to holidays and traditions, grief reminds us of our connections to one another and the fathomless depths of our hearts.

You have loved and you have lost and it hurts. When you can, if you can, make space for this duality. Grief has no timeline and your pain—rooted of course in love—has a place in the incredible story of your life.

There will be days when it feels impossible. I implore you: cling to our pages. Cling to your support pod. Swing from this one impossible moment to the next. Listen to a song, take a shower, water a plant, hug your fur friends, take a walk, fold an origami swan.

Keep going. It doesn’t matter how slow you go. Do the impossible. Keep going.
