"Some people say that time heals all wounds, as if the passing of each year helps make the sharp edges of life go smooth. But I can't help but feel like these are the sort of people who trade in useless platitudes and mollifying adages, people whoтАЩve led relatively pain-free lives and havenтАЩt been introduced to lifeтАЩs brutal compromises and forfeitures."

I also want to say, in regards to this poignant paragraph,

that until I lost my brother, father, mother, and sister within a span of five years, I didn't understand loss and grief at all.
