"She was far too small
for her feet to touch the bottom of her grief;
far too young
to navigate these treacherous waters."
Faith Hogan
"When a mother dies too young,
something inside her daughter always feels incomplete.
There's a missing piece she continues to look for,
an emptiness she keeps trying to fill."
--Hope Edelman
"...hold out both of your hands. Place your grief in one. In the other, accept the capacity to feel gratitude and awe for what you have witnessed and become.
Now bring them together, palm to palm, in front of you.
this is what Francis Weller calls
'the prayer of life.'"
Hope Edelman
"Our children come through us,
not for us,
except for the lessons they reflect to us(during their journey)
in an effort to grow us up along the way."
