At first when I lost my friends, I drowned my sorrows in drugs, which is something I highly discourage. My friends struggled with depression, so I took solace in the fact that they were no longer in pain. Above all, I try to concentrate on appreciating the times I did have with them and not dwell on all of the experiences of which I was robbed by their early death.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
