Lost love is still love, Eddie. It takes a different form, that's all. You can't see their smile or bring them food or tousle their hair or move them around a dance floor. But when those senses weaken, another heightens. Memory. Memory becomes your partner. You nurture it. You hold it. You dance with it.
Read this again w/ Will. Finished it alone because he (I think) lost interest. Was my fave book for so long and it was still great, but maybe more for the nostalgia than the content.
I think I expected too much after having this recommended by so many people (and loving Tuesdays with Morrie). I was disappointed.
