"I do not know what life will be like... it feels disengaged, like a leaf divided from the tree that gives it sustenance." p.487

This specific simile speaks volumes to me. It holds truth for so many things that are off-point, meaningless, even 'disengaged', when removed from their 'tree that gives [them] sustenance.
