Sometimes I just want to read a novel or watch a movie...
"We all share the burden and the privilege of constructing a life."  I no longer remember who said that.  It was a speaker at my brother's graduation, a poet I think.  And it is possible that I have inadvertantly altered the quote over the years.  Regardless, it still speaks to me about the struggle and celebration we all share.  And sometimes embracing this struggle is itself a challenge. :)
