Love and Wisdom
Grow in love and wisdom. Remember, nothing worthwhile comes easy. Don’t give yourself and your love to anyone unless they are worthy. Then love with all your heart. And when the heartbreak comes, don’t try to chase it away. Accept the pain and learn from it… If you remain good, pure and honest, the good will finally come to you.
~Diane Downs Unmailed letter in her diary, to her surrogate daughter on the occasion of her first birthday: Mother’s day, May 8, 1983.
