“was sitting in a full-capacity crowd at a hockey game with an empty seat next to him, and the person on the other side asked why it was empty, and the man replied sadly: “It’s my wife’s, but she passed away recently.” Visibly moved, the other man said: “I’m sorry to hear that. But isn’t there someone in your family or a friend who could come to the game with you?” The man replied: “No, they’re all at the funeral.”

“There’s an immensity of love that bursts from your chest the first time you hear your child cry, every emotion you’ve ever felt is amplified to the point of absurdity, children open floodgates inside us, upward as well as down. You’ve never felt so happy, and never felt so scared. Don’t say “don’t worry” to someone in that position. You can’t love someone like this without worrying about everything, forever.”
