we would choose never to see that person again
if we believed that distance would bring them greater happiness.

is a greater gift than a steak dinner served brusquely.

- Robert Heinlein

is now in my life causes an ever greater abundance
to flow in my direction.

but most of the time, we become oblivious
to the trust we have, or don't have.

in a more liberal sense,
and he will live with the license of a higher order of beings.
