| 125d940 | Yet losing him seemed unbearable. He was the one she loved, the one she would always love, and as he leaned in to kiss her, she gave herself over to him. While he held her close, she ran her hands over his shoulders and back, feeling the strength in his arms.

| 9af14e5 | I've been doing this a long time, and I've come to learn that predictions don't mean much. Too much lies outside the realm of medical knowledge.

The point is that you should try to make the most of the time you have left. | death inspirational | Nicholas Sparks | |

| bd12604 | It is no secret. All power is one in source and end, I think. Years and distances, stars and candles, water and wind and wizardry, the craft in a man's hand and the wisdom in a tree's root: they all arise together.

There is no other power. No other name. | Ursula K. Le Guin | ||
