I am a huge fan of the late Joan Didion. Ran across this quote from her which I had written down in my journal:

"I know what the fear is.

The fear is not for what is lost.

What is lost is already in the wall..

What is lost is already behind the locked door.

The fear is for what is still to be lost."

 
From Blue Nights--Joan Didion/2011
