Dean Koontz

Grief, Sorrow, Might

The answer to the mystery of existence is the love you shared sometimes so imperfectly, and when the loss wakes you to the deeper beauty of it, to the sanctity of it, you can't get off your knees for a long time, you're driven to your knees not by the weight of the loss but by gratitude for what preceded the loss.

Dean Koontz

Gratitude, Grief, Love You

Grief is a healthy emotion, and it's healthy to embrace it. By accepting loss, we clarify our values and the meaning of our lives.

Dean Koontz

Grief, Loss, Everything Happens For A Reason
