Celia’s parting gift.

In, “You can’t go home again,” Tomas Wolfe says,

“(Death is) to lose the earth you know, for greater knowing; to lose the life you have, for greater life; to leave the friends you loved, for greater loving; to find a land more kind than home, more large than earth.”

This comforted Celia when she lost her younger brother a few years ago.  Now it can comfort me.  So as I leave the friends and family start of my journey and venture out on my own, I carry that thought with me.
