There is something deep within us that sobs at endings. Why, God, does everything have to end? Why does all nature grow old? Why do spring and summer have to go?

About This Quote

We all have something inside us that screams at the thought of endings. The world around us is constantly changing, yet nothing will ever stay the same. Seasons change, but our lives are not just dictated by the weather. The day will always come when we have to say goodbye to someone or something that has been an important part of our lives. Sometimes, just imagining it makes us feel anxious and sad.
