Howl’s Moving Castle
“The boy saw the comet and he felt as though his life had meaning. And when it went away, he waited his entire life for it to come back to him. It was more than just a comet because of what it brought to his life: direction, beauty, meaning. Even in his darkest hours, he knew in his heart that someday it would return to him, and his world would be whole again. The boy saw the comet and suddenly his life had meaning.”
