I think it's swell that there are people you don't have to worry about when you don't see them for a long time, you don't have to wonder what they do, how they're getting along with themselves. You just know that they're all right, and probably doing something they like. Helen Oyeyemi
About This Quote

This quote is known as one of the most inspiring quotes in existence. This quote means that when we lose the ones we love, we still have them in our hearts and minds. When we say goodbye to someone we love and they leave us, we may not see them for a long time and worry about what they’re doing and how they’re doing; we may wonder where they’re at and who they’re with. However, when we don’t see someone for a long time, or when they leave us, we know that they are still alright and probably doing something they like because it makes them happy.
