If you lose someone, you feel a loss, then after a while you fill in the hole in your life and the loss gradually gets smaller and smaller and eventually goes away. There's a point to the pain. There's a reason and a direction.
In Marian Keyes's book "Watermelon," the author explores the emotional journey of experiencing loss. Initially, the pain of losing someone feels immense, creating a significant void in one's life. This profound sense of grief can be overwhelming, and it often leaves individuals feeling as if their happiness and stability have been shattered.
However, as time passes, Keyes suggests that individuals begin to heal. The emptiness created by the loss gradually diminishes, allowing for the possibility of moving forward. This gradual filling of the emotional void emphasizes that pain serves a purpose in the healing process, providing a pathway to growth and understanding in life after loss.
