"This is very precious book for me as I've yearned too long to get my hands on this. I've only read a few pages but in other collection of letters majority of them turn out to be a little tedious recounting of days to get through to the truly significant ones.

“You can't see the future coming--not the terrors, for sure, but you also can't see the wonders that are coming, the moments of light-soaked joy that await each of us.”

“And then there are days when sleeping is the hardest. The fight of muscle against world becomes so constant, that surrendering to slumber doesn't promise nearly enough relief. These are times when hands feel nothing but empty”
