"Time goes on, and your life is still there, and you have to live it. After a while you remember the good things more often than the bad. Then, gradually, the empty silent parts of you fill up with the sounds of talking and laughter again, and the jagged edges of sadness are softened by memories.
Nothing will be the same, ever...But there's a whole world waiting, still, and there are good things in it.
It was September, and time to leave the little house that had begun to seem like home...
It is hard to give up the being together with someone...
Somewhere, for (Tatay), I thought suddenly, it would be summer still, summer always."
-Lois Lowry, A Summer To Die
