how terrible, yet how beautiful

 

How beautiful it is, to love something so precious, so fleeting, so beautiful, so valuable, so ephemeral! You cannot truly love something unless it may someday  leave you. Otherwise you simply get used to it, accommodate it, and take it for granted. Don’t believe me? Ask a blind man what he would do to be able to see again, or a cripple what he would do to walk, and ask yourself what you need to do to be able to do those things. If you are healthy, and have healthy relationships with people in your life, then are you are rich, rich beyond your wildest dreams.
