Quotes by Andra Watkins (?)

“We can all name people we take for granted, because everybody’s swamped. Overwhelmed. Harried. We mean to make memories with people who matter, but often, we put it off for someday. And someday morphs into never, as Life’s unpredictability claims the people we love.”
― Andra Watkins, Not Without My Father: One Woman's 444-Mile Walk of the Natchez Trace

“Life is about what happens between all the things we wish we’d done. And when we do those things, Life fills holes and lights the flame of wishes. Life makes wishes live.”
― Andra Watkins, Not Without My Father: One Woman's 444-Mile Walk of the Natchez Trace
