We are afraid of losing what we have, whether it’s our life or our possessions and property. But this fear evaporates when we understand that our life stories and the history of the world were written by the same hand. Time and words can't be recalled, even if it was only yesterday. Don't let your happiness depend on something you may lose. There is no doubt in my mind that there are many ways to be a winner, but there is really only one way to be a loser and that is to fail and not look beyond the failure. The dead and the absent have no friends. If you live to be 100, I hope I live to be 100 minus 1 day, so I never have to live without you. The pain I feel now is the happiness I had before. That's the deal. In this world of change, nothing which comes stays, and nothing which goes is lost. Honor has not to be won; it must only not be lost.
