We lose not only through death, but also by leaving and being left,
by changing and letting go and moving on. And our losses include

expectations, illusions of freedom and power, illusions of safety-and
the loss of our own younger self, the self that thought it would always
be unwrinkled and invulnerable and immortal. -Judith Viorst, intro-duction, Necessary Losses, 1986
