Dying is not the real tragedy, Shelley."
"It's not?"
"Forgetting is.
It appears that you were meant to be mine only for a little while.
Samantha Sotto YambaoThere are other ways to live forever.
Samantha Sotto YambaoBut I am half a man, wholly in love, and so I have chosen to let you leave me instead.
Samantha Sotto YambaoWhy did I leave you? I loved you too much to stay.
Samantha Sotto YambaoThat is why I taught you how to trade, because that's what life is - a barter of choices and consequences.
Samantha Sotto YambaoThe gnomons's shadow falls where it falls - and so do we. Where we are now is where a lifetime's worth of steps have taken us.

If last night proved anything, it's that life is a strong drink served up in an extremely short - and fragile - shot glass.
Samantha Sotto YambaoGrowing old is to be set free, Brother. It is aslow and long-simmering process that extracts from you what you are really made of. But it requires acceptance. You cannot put a flailing chicken in a boiling pot. You must accept the heat and the pain with serenity so that the full flavors of your life may be released.
You may see this as decay, and it is. But it is also much more than that. As the body rots, so does the cage that traps us in our worldly concerns. When my legs became too weak to carry my body, I stopped pacing with worry. When my fingers became twisted, I stopped pointing blame. When I lost my sight, I stopped seeing illusions. It may be dark in the pot that I am simmering in, but I can see more clearly than I have ever seen in my life. I can see you, Brother, and I know who you are.
