...we have only this chance to love--now, today, to love whoever or whatever is before us. For the mountains will outlast us. The love will outlast us. But who we are will be used up to keep the blessing going. So put down whatever you have carved that is sharp--your mind, your edge, all your prepared responses. This is something that beggars all preparation. In the loving, nothing is ever saved and nothing is ever lost. --Mark Nepo
