Just found this when doing some research and I really liked it so I thought I d share it with the forumites :
"When we are born into this world, everyone laughs while we are crying. Be sure, that by your actions, when the time for you to go will come, you will be the one laughing, while everyone else will be crying." - Ralph Waldo Emerson |

So poetic and so true in every sense of the words.. I was in the latter scenario recently and that bought it all back to me.. But in a warming way |

The two most moving times in my life has been the birth of my children, they changed my world in the most positive way possible. Was told by grandfather that to reproduce was a instinct that few could or wanted to avoid.
Who said few things in life are certain except birth, death and taxes |

That is such profound phrase and is so true. When you look back at his works the man was so ahead of his time.. Although he is often quoted I believe he is so under estimated to this day. |
