“I wish I could say we all lived happily ever after. I can't. But I can say we lived. Our love for Nate lives, and he's left us this piece of himself in his art; it was his gift to us. We know him through his art, and I can take comfort in that.

Nate's journey ended to early, and I thought I had to run away to some far-off land to start mine. But, for now, it seems to me that I have enough to explore right here. There's a whole continent to discover in myself, and I know that it's love - love for my parents, my friends, my brother, and my art - that will guide me. Love will be my map.”

“On an overcast day, I look out of the window from my office and see gray clouds slowly meandering overhead. There was a time when the rain and cloud cover weighed heavily on my emotions as if they were gloom in its natural form, crying and raging with thunderous outbursts. But now those rainclouds appear differently to me, more like a soft, temperate, protective cover that makes me want to curl up with a book and relax. Funny how our outlook changes over time.

If it seems like circumstances will always be as they are, it is an illusion. As sure as the weather and nature and aging, you can count on life changing both you and your situation. How awful stagnancy would be if this were not true.”

“Life changes. Sometimes it is a slow progression, and sometimes it changes drastically in the blink of an eye.
It seems to me that life is like being on a raft in the ocean. There are times when we are up on
the crest of a wave, loving life, seeing far into the future with hope and happiness. Then other times there seems to be a huge wave crashing right on top of us, and we feel like we are going to drown.
And then there are the times we are just floating on our raft in the calm seas, waiting for something to happen.
Whatever the case, life changes. You just have to hold on to your raft and ride the waves.”
