Maybe their sorrow over children that never came should have brought the two men closer. But sorrow is unreliable in that way. When people don't share it there's a good chance that it will drive them apart instead.

You can love someone and still choose to say goodbye to them,”
“You can miss a person every day, and still be glad that they are no longer in your life."

Mill claimed that women have been coaxed, cajoled, shoved and squashed into a series of feminine contortions for so many centuries, that it is now quite impossible to define their natural abilities or aspirations.

there was a single line written by John Stuart Mill that, when I read it, moved the world: “It is a subject on which nothing final can be known.” The subject Mill had in mind was the nature of women.
The next thing you do is think deeply about what you want these people to say about and what of person you were
What character would you like them to have seen in you and how would you want to have affected their lives and what achievements have you done in yours?
The third speaker is from your work or profession. And the fourth is from your church or some community organization where you've been involved in service.
If you carefully consider what you wanted to be said of you in the funeral experience, you will find your definition of success.

10 minutes 38 seconds in this strange world by Elif Shafak
Helen Keller describing the day she learnt to express words ,I admire deeply how despite all the hardships in her life she described herself as the happiest child on that night.
If would have been difficult to find a happier child than I was as I lay in my crib at the close of the eventful day and lived over the joys it had brought me, and for the first time I longed for a new day to come.

I learned a great many new words that day, I do not remember what they all were; but I do know that mother, father, sister, teacher were among them- words that were to make the world blossom for me,"like Aaron's rod,with flowers."

The totalitarian of being forced to choose and quantify with respect to love,puts love in the context of a heirarchical power relationship. It is no longer a free ,all embracing feeling . It can no longer be altruistic.

Love is neither quantifiable nor mutually exclusive. One cannot love "so much" or "this much." Nor does loving"this" exclude loving "that."

Once you understand that habits can change, you have the freedom- and the responsibility- to remake them. Once you understand that habits can be rebuilt, the power of habit becomes easier to grasp, and the only option left is to get to work.

أنظر إلى الناس و أتساءل : أيمكن أن تكون هذه هي وجوهنا حقأ؟ كيف استطعنا أن ننظفها بهذه السرعة من الوحل الذي طرشه حزيران فوقها؟ أصحيح اننا نبتسم؟أصحيح..

Ask for too much and it might actually turn out worse. But I can pray for small things, like fertile fields, a mother's love, a child's smile - a life that's less bitter than sweet.

This life is difficult. We lose fathers, brothers, mothers, songbirds and pieces of ourselves. Whips strikes , honors go to the guilty , and there is too much lonliness. I would be a fool to pray for my children to escape all that.
