“When I look over my past, I see that the stages in my life are like the phases of the moon. I've had periods where I was the waxing gibbous: fat with wealth and success. There have been other seasons when my happiness was like the waning crescent and I watched my joy fade away slowly, merging with the atmosphere around me as if it never existed. Then I felt as if I was left with nothing more than an illusion, but happiness returns in time and glows once more in corpulent fullness. It's time that makes the difference.” IfsLooksHas BeensPastJoyLeftFeltDifferencesWealthStageReturnPeriodsMoonIllusionSeasonsFatsAtmosphereFadesPhasesFullnessMy PastFade AwayMergingCrescentWaxingWealth And SuccessPhases Of The Moon Author:Amy Neftzger

The problem is that people forget the pain and aggravation as soon as the quest ends successfully, and then they remember only the glorious parts. In this way quests are a bit like childbirth, even to the point of saying that quests often give birth to glory. Maybe.” PeopleIfsWayGivingPersonsEndsProblemPainRememberBitsForgetHugeBirthGloryGloriousQuestsChildbirthAggravationInconvenienceForget The Pain Book:The Orphanage of Miracles: The Kingdom Wars: Book One Source: The Orphanage of Miracles: The Kingdom Wars: Book One
