"Because God is never cruel, there is a reason for all things. We must know the pain of loss, because if we never knew it, we would have no compassion for others, and we would become monsters of self-regard, creatures of unalloyed self interest. The terrible pain of loss teaches humility to our prideful kind, has the power to soften uncaring hearts, to make a better person of a good one."
an excerpt from The Darkest Evening of the Year by Dean Koontz
