“People come in and out of your life. For a time they are your world; they are everything. And then one day they're not. There's no telling how long you will have them near. A year ago I could not have imagined that Josh would no longer be a constant for me.

It's the good-byes that are hard.”

“Do viđenja, dragi, do viđenja. Ljubav, mili, u grudima spava. Ništa ovaj rastanak ne mijenja, možda novi susret obećava. Do viđenja, mili, bez ruke i slova neka ti tuga obrve ne povije. Smrt nikad nije bila nešto nova, ni život nije ništa novije.”

“When there was nothing left to do, but say goodbye, I hugged my dad, thanked him for the hospitality, and we both agreed it had been a good visit. Tears welled up in his eyes, and I realized at that moment, it doesn't matter how old our children or parents are, it doesn't get any easier to say good by. I had lost my younger daughter; my oldest will have moved out by the time I returned home, and dad was saying goodby to his oldest daughter. The circle of life connected us. How many times over the last forty-plus years had my dad reluctantly, with tears in his eyes, said goodbye to me? It made my own situation with my daughters more poignant.”
