A solitude of sea
A solitude of death, but these

"I wish you enough. Enough sun to light up your days, enough rain that you appreciate the sun. Enough joy to strengthen your soul, enough pain that you can appreciate life's small moments of happiness. And enough friends that you can manage a farewell now and then."
(Sofia Lundberg — The Red Address Book)
"You don't realise the importance of ritual, commonplace, until it's gone. One of those peripheral things take you take for granted; even though they don't affect you personally their absence is profound."
