Many loves might come and go from your life, but you’re kinda stuck with
yourself. Partners, friends, even family members… any time there is loss,
the dust settles, and there you are. And that being the case, for those of

fault for death and entropy itself. You’re just a person. You delight, you
suffer, you survive, and hopefully, you love. A lot.
