    When there is great pain, there are only three rules: not to push the pain away, not to try to understand it, and not to indulge in it... Make yourself as open as a young tree caught in a storm. Let the storm bend you at its will, do not resist it, do not argue with it either- how could one argue with the wind and the rain?- and never ever feel sorry for yourself.

    There were no words that could convey what she had so recently discovered. That each instant was an eternity, each breath a whole life; the weight of her hand on the edge of fountain, the coolness of the wind on her skin, the rustling of leaves, everything was a gift offered freely for all to savor.
