"We all have that burning question about what happens if we lose somebody we love, especially if we lose them tragically. We wonder what fear was going on, we wonder if we could have reached out and touched them, held their hand, looked in their eyes, been there"

- Kevin Costner

About this Quote

This quote by Kevin Costner speaks to the universal experience of loss and grief. He acknowledges the deep discomfort and confusion that includes losing somebody we like, particularly if it is unexpected and unanticipated. He speaks with the questions that linger in our minds, the what-ifs and the could-haves. He talks to the remorse of not having the ability to be there for them in their last moments, to hold their hand, to look into their eyes. He talks to the worry of not understanding what was going on in their mind, and the guilt of not being able to do anything to assist. His words are a suggestion that we are not alone in our grief, which we can find convenience in knowing that we are all connected in our shared experience of loss.
