Hello, stranger - you came just in time

I look for your face in a crowd, or in line

Hello, stranger - not a moment too soon

See, that old picture's fading in the drawer of my room

Now toys have gone lost, baby teeth have come loose

There were accidents involving stitches, spilt juice

Report cards were shown, and one time I got sick

But it's nothing I couldn't catch you up on real quick

Hello, stranger - I saved you a place

And it hardly seems strange now that I've seen your face

- as told by ginger - hello stranger

that’s what grief does to you. It takes the puzzle pieces of your life and tosses them in the air. Nothing lands back where it’s supposed to, and the damn thing will probably never be fully put together again, but that doesn’t mean we can just stop living. - gravity - Sara cate

Sam: It’s all wrong

By rights we shouldn’t even be here.

But we are.

It’s like in the great stories Mr. Frodo.

The ones that really mattered.

Full of darkness and danger they were,

and sometimes you didn’t want to know the end.

Because how could the end be happy.

How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad happened.

But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow.

Even darkness must pass.

A new day will come.

And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer.

Those were the stories that stayed with you.

That meant something.

Even if you were too small to understand why.

But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand.

I know now.

Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back only they didn’t.

Because they were holding on to something.

Frodo: What are we holding on to, Sam?

Sam : That there’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for.

Here's to the end of 2020 and the beginning of a new year...

Forever, Emily Dickinson said, is composed of now's. But how do you inhabit the now you are in? How do you stop the ghosts of all the other now's from getting in? How, in short, do you live?

“Everyone you meet is inevitably flawed... I don't avoid broken people because I think I'm better than them. I just don't like looking at my own reflection.”

“We are all made of flesh and stars, but we all become dust in the end. Best to shine while you can.”

Greta: The Darkness. It’s still there.

June: Maybe it’ll never really fully go away. Maybe it’s there to remind us to look at the light that surrounds us.

Even the devil catches feelings, or he wouldn’t go into rages. Even he knows how to love.
