Shouldn't all the big stuff happen when you're a kid? When a bruise in the knee seemed like a little scratch and that the pain will go away if mommy kisses it? When a fever can be cured by a new toy that your friend doesn't own yet? When running around naked in the rain is your own little piece of heaven or playing house becomes your ready escape to reality?
How do you explain letting go? Is it the same as parting away with your favorite sweet lip coloring lollipop? Is it as simple as lulling your doll to sleep? Is it as trivial as singing your first ABCs and counting 123s?
How do you explain the battle to keep your heart from freezing over when storms pass through? Can you undergo a bypass operation, buy a new heart and move on?
I'm not sure.
What I do know is that in the midst of all things impossible, my biggest comfort has been gratitude.
