Day 12: I am grateful for people who stick around even when that stick is difficult. None of us are easy to love wholeheartedly all of the time. We hurt those we love, they hurt us. This truth is love’s incongruity, her cruelest piece―by design the ones we love are most heavily armed to cause the most damage. I suppose that is the price we pay for meaningful, beyond-surface, authentic human connection.

“The wound is the place where the Light enters you.” – Rumi

“Grief is the last act of love we have to give to those we loved. Where there is deep grief, there was great love. ” – Unknown

“How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.” – Winnie the Pooh

“To have been loved so deeply, even though the person who loved us is gone, will give us some protection forever. ” – Albus Dumbledore

“But God hath promised strength for the day―Rest for the labor, light for the way―Grace for the trials, help from above―Unfailing sympathy, undying love. ” – Annie Johnson Flint

… strength for the journey, love & light for the way.
