Quote by Špela Urbanc

“We all want to be there to support and show that we care when something “bad” happens. But what about if we learned to live this way every day? What if we would live every day as if we are about to die tomorrow? Wouldn’t that be nice? How many more I love yous would you say per day? How would you speak to the people around you if you knew these were the last words they would hear from you? Oh, how we would take nothing for granted. Life would be so much more loving. Please do it, let’s not wait for death or accidents or something bad to happen to wake us up.”

“Few I have met have actually had a ‘last year.’ Most had only a ‘last’ month or two, a few weeks or days, or a few seconds. To have a whole year to examine one’s life consciously in the context of approaching death is almost unique in the human experience. And it gives a person the power to heal that which remains unloved and unloving. But why wait for a terminal diagnosis before opening to the potential grace and wonder of this living moment. No one can afford to put this work off any longer, because almost no one knows the day on which the last year begins.”

“How much we regret, how much we hold on dearly for our lives for the very past that is now gone, all these events that once had such an enormous sway over us and are now so very insignificant. But how we hold on to these memories for our dear life. It seems to be all we have. The interesting question now is, are memories something we should cherish given how much joy they can provide or something we should better let go of, considering how much anguish they can cause?”

“I stopped periodically to slog through fields around the rest stops with Peppy. Athin, cold rain had been falling since we left the Quad Cities, turning the ground muddy. After the first stop, I changed my socks and jeans and then had to do it again at our next break. I should have packed more clothes, another pair of boots, newspapers to wrap them in, my espresso machine, a fireplace, my mother's piano, a case of Barolo, a ticket to Basel.”
