卢萨学会的悲伤技能之一就是要紧紧抓住睡眠和醒来之间的最后时刻。有时，在清晨，注意不要睁开眼睛，或者通过温暖的滴水使她的思想到达疼痛明确的表面，她可能会选择自己的梦想。她可以打电话给记忆，并耐心地向后跟随肉，声音和气味。这将再次是她的生活，她被紧紧抓住了。一切都没有决定。一切仍然是新的。
(One of the skills of grief that Lusa had learned was to hold on tight to the last moments between sleep and waking. Sometimes, then, in the early morning, taking care not to open her eyes or rouse her mind through its warm drowse to the surface where pain broke clear and could, she found she could choose her dreams. She could call a memory and patiently follow it backward into flesh, sound, and scents. It would be come her life once again and she was held and safe. Everything undecided. Everything still new.)
卢萨（Lusa）学习应对自己的悲伤，他发现了珍惜睡眠和醒来之间短暂的时刻的能力。在这些清晨的情况下，她避免了充分的觉醒，让自己可以选择带来舒适的梦想。在这种状态下，她可以重新审视记忆，重新恢复曾经定义自己生活的感觉和情感，从而获得安全感和与她过去的联系。这种做法使她能够体验一下一切都感觉新鲜和尚未解决的时刻。
当卢萨沉浸在这些珍贵的回忆中时，她在悲伤中发现了安慰。回忆记忆的行为不仅为她提供了避难所，而且还使她能够面对自己的情感景观的复杂性。通过在梦想与现实之间的微妙平衡中徘徊，她回收了喜悦和美丽的时刻，将痛苦转变为潜在的和新的起点。
