Some people, they can't just move on, you know, mourn and cry and be done with it. Or at least seem to be. But for me... I don't know. I didn't want to fix it, to forget. It wasn't something that was broken. It's just...something that happened. And like that hole, I'm just finding ways, every day, of working around it. Respecting and remembering and getting on at the same time. Sarah Dessen

Respecting and remembering and getting on at the same time." The quote by this author, there is a hole in her life, but she is trying to work around it instead of filling the hole with anger or hate.

The hole doesn't make her life harder because she finds ways to respect and remember it. She finds ways of moving on every day no matter what happens with the hole. That sounds so simple and easy but it takes a lot of courage and strength to do so.
