My life comes down to three moments: the death of my father meeting my husband and the birth of my daughter. Everything I did previous to that just doesn't seem to add up to very much.
Death is one moment and life is so many of them.
We sometimes congratulate ourselves at the moment of waking from a troubled dream it may be so the moment after death.
Life is but a moment death also is but another.
Watching a peaceful death of a human being reminds us of a falling star one of a million lights in a vast sky that flares up for a brief moment only to disappear into the endless night forever.
Even though people may be well known they hold in their hearts the emotions of a simple person for the moments that are the most important of those we know on earth: birth marriage and death.
There are as is known insects that die in the moment of fertilization. So it is with all joy: life's highest most splendid moment of enjoyment is accompanied by death.
Those who have the strength and the love to sit with a dying patient in the silence that goes beyond words will know that this moment is neither frightening nor painful but a peaceful cessation of the functioning of the body.
Dating is just awkward moments and one person wants more than the other. It's just that constant strangeness. I think it's a very real thing.
There's been times when I've had heartbreaking moments and I'm like 'I can't believe you said that ' or 'I can't believe you did that'. And it hurts it still hurts and it'll always hurt but I've never had somebody that I truly cared about just walk out on me whether it was a boyfriend or an aunt mom or dad.
