speaking to me and i don;t want to forget

this:

I never asked for it to end, but then again, I never asked for it to begin.  For that is the way it is with life, as some of the most beautiful days come completely by chance.  But even the most beautiful days eventually have their sunsets.  ~Richard Chernov

which completely sums up every day we've lived overseas

and no.

we aren't leaving any time soon

i just want to put this in a place where it won't be forgotten
