"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."

APRIL is the cruelest month, breeding
Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing
Memory and desire, stirring
Dull roots with spring rain.
Beautiful. Both the Lamott quote and, of course, the ol' T.S. Eliot.
Bittersweet.
I've nearly finished Bird by Bird...looks like one of those books I will read again. And again.
Simply love it.
