I can't believe how the years have gone by. I guess I have to keep reminding myself that this happened when I was only 5 years old...
It's what I told you I would do annually.
February 1, 1965 - March 31, 1993
I wish I had more or different quotes to state. But when it comes down to it, I could quote this one a million more times and it still touches my heart. And still makes me cry. Brandon Lee quoted this in his final interview, which is taken from the Paul Bowles' novel, The Sheltering Sky. Which I have been wanting to buy for quite some time now.
"Because we do not know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well. And yet everything happens only a certain number of times, and a very small number really. How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, an afternoon that is so deeply a part of your being that you cannot conceive of your life without it? Perhaps four, or five times more? Perhaps not even that. How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems limitless."
