Some Words That I Have Come Across. . .

The Way I See It #198

You can shower a child with presents or money, but what do they really mean, compared to the most valuable gift of all - your time? Vacations and special events are nice, but so often the best moments are the spontaneous ones. Being there. Every Moment you spend with your child could be the one that really matters.

--Tim Russert

And I always thought: the very simplest words must be enough. When I say what things are like Everyone's heart must be torn to shreds. That you'll go down if you don't stand up for yourself. Surely you see that.

--Bertolt Brecht (1956)
