All That Mattered

“Not one of the material things we lost matter anymore. I don’t long for any of them, no matter how special, or beautiful, or expensive they were. But I miss the people who are gone, whether I lost them in the 1940’s, or years and decades later. Those voids can’t ever be filled. So, please treasure the people that you have in your life, and realize how important they are to you now, so that you can still enjoy every minute you have with them. In the end, it will be all that mattered.”
