That's the worst of family troubles. You can't keep it all from the children, and a wound in a child's heart is like a wound in a young tree. It grows with the tree, not out, but in.

Nellie McClung

Quote of the day

At some point in life the world's beauty becomes enough. You don't need to photograph, paint or even remember it. It is enough. No record of it needs to be kept and you don't need someone to share it with or tell it to. When that happens — that letting go — you let go because you can.
Toni Morrison
