May He Who has helped me by doing other and more difficult things for me help also in this: in His mercy I put my trust.

To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places.

And never, never to forget.
