the power of words

"I asked myself a lot of things, things that couldn't be answered, to force myself to grieve more.  It seemed as if I wanted to sustain my grief, to assure myself that I had cared deeply enough.

But now I ask the questions mostly because I want to know the answers."

--"A Pair of Tickets" by Amy Tan

I read this story tonight, and for the first time since I was thirteen, a story made me cry.

Words have such power....lyrics, literature, conversations.  You just gotta find it.  I promise it's there.
