findnewones.Do it because she came throughfor youso
beautifully.Do it to seenew corners of
theworld.Do it for the pleasure ofmissing this greatnew man, andstepping back fromhim to get someperspective, and callinghimevery thirdday from the road, andreturning tohim whenyou’redone. Do it so youcanlook inthe
