I take solace in that my loved ones live good, long and healthy lives. I will miss them like crazy when they're gone, but as long as I live and remember them, they will live on for a little while longer. I think the key is to remember to appreciate life when it is, because death comes to us all.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
