“If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day so I never have to live without you.”
A.A. Milne,
Winnie-the-Pooh
“When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most
to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice,
solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our
wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us
in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of
grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not
healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a
friend who cares.”
Henri J.M. Nouwen,
The Road to Daybreak: A Spiritual Journey
“Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.”
A.A. Milne
