"If some messenger were to come to us with the offer that death should be overthrown, but with the one inseparable condition that birth should also cease; if the existing generation were given the chance to live forever, but on the clear understanding that never again would there be a child, or youth, or first love, never again new persons with new hopes, new ideas, new achievements; ourselves for always and never any others--could the answer be in doubt?
Alas for those who cannot sing, but die with all their music in them."

I like your style of writing, and I enjoy reading about all this even if i am as clueless as a grandmother at a punk rock concert as to who you are writing about.

Thank you so much. I don't know if you're refering to this post specifically, because I totally didn't write this one- it's a quote from a Jewish prayer book actually. I just thought it was beautiful.
Some times I think no body ever reads this. It makes me happy to find out that somebody does!
I READ IT!!!! my precious little Lindsey! (this is Rachel - by the way - on Blake's computer)
