Quotes about child
children giving-up husband
As long as you're around, your life is too. So just as you shower love and affection and attention on the husbands, wives, parents, children and forever friends who sorround you, you have to do so equally with your life, because it's yours, it's you, and it's always there rooting for you, cheering you on, even when you feel like you can't do it.

Stand in the woods and you only sense it. They are vast, featureless nowhere. And they are alive. Bill Bryson
