so as to have the life that is waiting for us.

is people's hearts, and that's hard enough.

If you realize that all things change,
there is nothing you will try to hold on to.
- Lao Tzu
The 'good old ways' are best... only until better ways are found.

Whatever the issue, consider the issue itself, with rational attention,
and make a considered choice.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
