The rain.
The sky just before the sun sets.
This song.
Green smoothies.
Second chances.
(the possibility of a second chance)
Forgiveness.
Family.
A church family.
Love.
This quote:
"Love will break you. Nobody can protect you from that,
and living alone won't either, for solitude will also break
you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to
feel. It is the reason you are here on earth. You are here
to risk your heart. You are here to be swallowed up.
And when it happens that you are broken, or betrayed,
or left, or hurt, or death brushes near, let yourself sit
by an apple tree and listen to the apples falling all
around you in heaps, wasting their sweetness. Tell
yourself you tasted as many as you could."
(Louise Erdrich, The Painted Drum)
