"In my life I have found two things of priceless worth - learning and loving. Nothing else - not fame, not power, not achievement for its own sake - can possibly have the same lasting value. For when your life is over, if you can say 'I have learned' and 'I have loved,' you will also be able to say 'I have been happy."
Arthur C. Clarke - Gentry Lee, 2012.

Gustav Klimt - Old Italian Art, 1891.

You will teach them to fly , but they will not fly your flight .
You will teach them to dream , but they will not dream your dream .
You will teach them to live , but they will not live your life .
Nevertheless , in every flight , in every life , in every dream , the print of the way you taught them will remain ...
~ Mother Teresa ~

“The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not ‘get over’ the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same nor would you want to.”
Dr. Elizabeth Kubler-Ross and David Kessler.
