"There are all sorts of losses people suffer - from the small to the large. You can lose your keys, your glasses, your virginity. You can lose your head, you can lose your heart, you can lose your mind.

Loss is more than just death, and grief is the gray shape-shifter of emotion."

On her knees, her hand on the cold rim of the bathtub, she waited for something to happen inside."

Toni Morrison, American Novelist
