It’s all fine to say, “Time will heal everything, this too shall pass away. People will forget”—and things like that when you are not involved, but when you are there is no passage of time, people do not forget and you are in the middle of something that does not change.~ John Steinbeck, Cannery Row, 1935

True....easier sad than done.
yeah.. and sometimes when somebody says that to me, it makes me want to scream and scream and scream. it doesn't help at all.
is there anything wrong? something I haven't heard of from you since we last chat?
i've been told that a lot of times too. i guess they say that bec they want to console you not knowing it is damn right irritating.
Hi Jac. all is fine. I read Cannery Row two weekends ago and i liked the passage i quoted above. kasi totoo siya. :)
Hi Kayni. you got it. it is, indeed, irritating.
I have found that it is a very true thing. Passage of time does allow us the recovery we sometimes crave.
