"to live is to be marked. To live is to change..."
"we are our injuries, as much as we are our successes."
my favourite barbara kingsolver quotes (the poisonwood bible). i was reminded of them when i read this awesome piece on dealing with death and grief:
"My scars are a testament to the love and the relationship that I had... And if the scar is deep, so was the love. So be it... Scars are a testament to life. Scars are only ugly to people who can’t see."
"As for grief, you'll find it comes in waves."
the wave analogy is brilliant. read it.

This really resonates for me today. I sobbed on my way to work today, the hard, shaking kind.
