Some feelings sink so deep into the heart that only loneliness can help you find them again. Some truths are so painful that only shame can help you live with them. Some things are so sad that only your soul can do the crying for them.

About This Quote

When Judy Blume said, “Some feelings sink so deep into the heart that only loneliness can help you find them again,” she was speaking to the power of friendship. When we lose a friend we very often feel badly for a long time. On the other hand, we can also rejoice in our close friendships and be happy for them when they succeed. However, sometimes we feel so bad about ourselves that we don’t even want to speak with our closest friends anymore. That’s why when people feel very badly about themselves it is important that they talk with someone else.
