“While at the lake yesterday evening, the following thought filled my heart ... ~ Loss is like a weed growing in a dry and barren land. It's beauty radiates among the ruins. There is no right or wrong to loss. It simply supplies the griever with tears for the weed to grow and the beauty to radiate…” quote by Jennifer Ross

““While at the lake yesterday evening, the following thought filled my heart ... ~ Loss is like a weed growing in a dry and barren land. It's beauty radiates among the ruins. There is no right or wrong to loss. It simply supplies the griever with tears for the weed to grow and the beauty to radiate among the ruins. Even in the greatest of pain that one can experience ... beauty can be formed among the ashes.””
