Quotes to ponder:
"Home is a lot of things for us. It’s a place. It’s a collection of people. It even acts as a reference point for our lives, on our mental timeline and geographically."
"When you return home again after you’ve lost someone, you have to say hello to all of the things that have risen up in place of what used to be there. And you have to say goodbye to everything that you’ve lost and are continuing to lose."
"If you’re in it right now, my hearts, I’m sorry. We don’t expect to lose our feelings of home in grief but when we do that’s just one more thing we have to add to the pile of things to mourn, things that we’ll never get back."
