The worst of the pain is behind me and now I clearly see I’m better for loving you and having been loved by you. It took time to separate light from dark, good from bad, but it’s obvious now. More than anything else ever in my life our love changed me for the better. C.S.
I hold it true, whate’er befall,
I feel it when I sorrow most;
‘Tis better to have loved and lost,
Than never to have loved at all.
Alfred Tennyson
