“Do people have a choice in the direction their lives will go? We cannot choose where and when we are born, by whom or how we are first loved, or with whom we will fall in love – at least, I do not believe so. And we cannot choose who is taken from us, or the way in which we are taken... But I do believe we have choices – how we love and how much, what we read, where we travel. How we live after the person we love has died or left us. Whether or not we decide to take the risk and live again.”
