What you wrote reminded me of a verse by a Spanish author that I put on the cover of my notebooks when I went to college, was something like this: How many times overwhelmed by the weight of everyday life we let ourselves be overwhelmed and forget the warmth of a smile and we invest the values of living to endure.
Then try to live with the intensity of love, knowing that death is the only sure thing.
yeah, that's a good one ! Thanks for sharing! :-)
