Jennifer S. Cheng, So We Must Meet Apart

— Jennifer S. Cheng, So We Must Meet Apart

does anyone know if we have fun tomorrow?

What I learned from Naoko’s death was this: no truth can cure the sadness we feel from losing a loved one. No truth, no sincerity, no strength, no kindness, can cure that sorrow. All we can do is see that sadness through to the end and learn something from it, but what we learn will be no help in facing the next sadness that comes to us without warning.

— Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Woods
