She knew that what she was going through was nothing special, just garden-variety heartbreak, the sort of thing that poets and novelists had been writing about for hundreds of years, but she also knew, from those same books, that there were people who never recover form it, ones who go on through life beset by a dim and painful longing.

About This Quote

The pain of loss is so horrible because it can never be healed. But, there are people who suffer from the pain of heartbreak. They may not be able to move on with their lives because they are consumed by the pain that their loved one was taken away from them. Or, sometimes, they are left in a state of emotional limbo where they cannot forget the person they lost but cannot bring themselves to move on.

There is a way out of this emotional suffering. The only thing that helps during grief is the love for someone else. When you love another person, you can feel the pain of losing them without feeling like you want to die.
