“I’m learning that grief isn’t something you can outrun. You can stay busy, keep yourself moving, go about your life as normal; but it is going to catch up with you. It will find you without warning, no matter where you are. Work. A movie theater. The middle of an aisle in a crowded grocery store. It will stop you in your tracks and bring you to your knees. And you’ll suddenly find yourself struggling to explain your tears to concerned strangers. And it won’t happen just once. It will keep hitting you have accepted that they are gone.”

My PIN number to this day is my second grade best friends birthday. There are people I don’t talk to anymore whose families are still in my prayers. There are shirts I wear to bed from exes of 8 years ago who are married now with kids. And I haven’t found a macaroni salad recipe better than my college boyfriend’s mom’s. Our lives are made up of so many people and when people become parts of our lives, some parts remain long after they leave. And in the same exact way, it’s comforting to know there are so many lives you’re still a part of that you have no idea about.

sometimes it just hurts and there is nothing you can do about it
