moving on

Stephen King wrote: Time takes it all. Whether you want it or not, time takes it all away, time bares it away. In the end, there is only darkness. Sometimes, we find others in that darkness, and sometimes we lose them there again. - One Tree Hill

"Laughter gives us distance. It allows us to step back from an event, deal with it and then move on.” - Bob Newhart

“I have learned that if you must leave a place that you have lived in and loved and where all your yesteryears are buried deep, leave it any way except a slow way, leave it the fastest way you can. Never turn back and never believe that an hour you remember is a better hour because it is dead. Passed years seem safe ones, vanquished ones, while the future lives in a cloud, formidable from a distance.”
― Beryl Markham, West With the Night

"I've learned that things change, people change, and it doesn't mean you forget the past or try to cover it up. It simply means you move on and treasure the memories. Letting go doesn't mean giving up, it means accepting that some things weren't meant to be."

"True friends are the ones who never leave your heart, even if they leave your life for awhile. Even after years apart, you pick up with them right where you left off, and even if they die they're never dead in your heart.”
