Quote of the Day

I think sorrow is natural.  And I had a friend once in the age when a psychiatrist thought it was a good idea to give you a lot of drugs if you were going through grieving and sorrow, and then you just wouldn't feel it.  What that means is you never get over it, because you haven't had that experience, which is a very human one, and everyone has it sooner or later.  It's grief.  And since I'm now in the land of windows, I'm the person that they phone and they say, "Will this ever be over?  How do I get through this?"  So one day at a time, but don't expect there to be no sorrow.

-- Margaret Atwood
