The Succession Of Changes From The Cradle To The Grave.

(Today I visited my father's grave.)

“Nature gives to every time and season some beauties of its own; and from morning to night, as from the cradle to the grave, it is but a succession of changes so gentle and easy that we can scarcely mark their progress.”

- Charles Dickens


But the succession of living to the dead cannot be said to be gentle or easy, and we marked clearly the end of that progress.

“If you're still hanging onto a dead dream of yesterday, laying flowers on its grave by the hour, you cannot be planting the seeds for a new dream to grow today”

- Joyce Chapman


I know I should be starting a new dream, but my heart says "hang to the old dream a little longer."
