“After a while you begin to accept your defeats with your head up and your eyes ahead with the grace of woman, not the grief of a child. And you learn to build all your roads on today because tomorrow’s ground is too uncertain for plans, and futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight. And you learn that you really can endure, you really are strong, you really do have worth, and you learn, and you learn, and with every goodbye, you learn…” – Veronica A. Shoffstall
