“Practice any art… no matter how well or badly, not to get money and fame, but to experience becoming, to find out what's inside you, to make your soul grow.”
- McKellen reciting Vonnegut
And if love and pain can exist in the same place. Then it’s true, we must feel pain to truly understand what it means to love.
And that’s grief.
The feeling of losing something or someone that once held a power of love.
It hurts to lose but we always gain back
This is my favorite shelter dog. He feels like he’s my dog but isn’t my dog. And I hope that he will find the right people that love him the way that I do.
I don’t shame him for his past I embrace him for his future and who he may become.
Just like people.
