The Meaning of Life
"For one human being to love another: that is perhaps the most difficult of our tasks; the ultimate, the last test and proof, the work for which all other work is but preparation."
- Rainer Maria Rilke
There is a Meadow in My Perfect World
There's a meadow in my perfect world Where wind dances the branches of a tree Casting leopard spots of light across the face of a pond The tree stands tall and grand and alone Shading the world beneath it. There will come a day when I rest against its spine. And look out over a valley where the sun warms, but never burns. I will watch leaves turn Green, then amber, then crimson Then no leaves at all. But the tree will not die. For in this place, winter never comes. It is here, in the cradle of all I hold dear, I guard every memory of you. And when I find myself frozen in the mud of the real far from your loving eyes, I will return to this place, close mine and take solace in the simple perfection of knowing you. - from Wind River featu ring Jeremy Renner and Elizabeth Olsen
