When you are past middle life - and I hope you have the rich experience of love along the way - don't think everything is all over.

Friends you can gather around you in the later years of life are worth the whole thing.

Stare, stunned, at the pandemonium--the devils let loose from their cages.

Iโve known you for a short time, but I feel like Iโve known you forever
