But it's not as though I don't want to remember that early evening in college when Bob and I decided to walk fifteen miles up into the Green Mountains. That weightless night spring was untroubled clothed in laughter because we owned time giddiness an attempt to escape our sheltered cocoons. The sky warmed up with early light as we struck the high meadows woods the stream where we caught rainbow trout.

When we are born next time we'll understand more about pain and loss when you finally give up all hope and slide straight down into a lake your last breath bathed in tears. We'll walk far beyond the campus get married have children and love as never before.
