"I think it's all subjective though. Maybe someone has what seems like a minor thing to me, but to them it's life-changing. But in the end, you're right... if it didn't happen to you it's hard to understand."

"And some things really are... different, and would be hard to explain. Like being here at Asgard, which... well, it would be really hard to explain to people back home."
She was about to say it had wonderful and horrible aspects, but she didn't want to remind Henry of what had happened to him. Surely being on crutches kept him remembering it enough.
"But... small things can be wonderful too. Like tonight."
Eileen wondered if she'd gone to far with that, but it was really how she felt.
