"Resolve to be tender with the young, compassionate with the aged,
sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant with the weak and wrong because sometime in your life you will have been all of these."

''I can see it. This one moment when you know you're not a sad story. You are alive.
And you stand up and
see the lights on the buildings and everything that makes you wonder.
And you're listening to that song on that drive
with the people you love most in this world.
And in this moment, I swear...We are infinite.''

What beautiful, magical words! Reading it made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. It conjures up incredible images/feelings. What a wise, kindly, warm soul you are.
The only thing more unthinkable than leaving was staying; the only thing more impossible than staying was leaving. I didn't want to destroy anything or anybody. I just wanted to slip quietly out the back door, without causing any fuss or consequences, and then not stop running until I reached Greenland.

"Sometimes I Wish I could save you. And there's so many things that I want you to know.. I won't give up tillit'sover, if it takes you forever I want you to know that...If you fall, stumble down, I'll pick you up off the ground. If you lose faith in you, I'll give you strength to pull through. Tell me you won't give up 'causeI'll be waiting if you fall, you know, I'll be there for you." -Save You by Simple Plan

I like that, the whole cycle of life thing. Our society would function so much better if we all did that. Not easy to do, but something to strive to do consistently.
