"Perhaps, the lessons do remain. I learned much last year. I learned that the measure of life is revealed in the quality of your relationships; with God, our families, and our fellow men.
I've learned that the greatest threat to love is not circumstance but the absence of attention. For we do not neglect others because we have ceased to love; rather we cease to love others because we have neglected them. I've learned that each day is a miracle unearned. I've learned that while life is ephemeral- love is not. In short, I have learned what matters, and what does not. I do not know what my future holds or even in who's hands it lies, but I know where I am and what I have, and its enough."
