“I do miss what could have been…a home, a family. I guess I’m an old soul. In Africa, one of the men there called me that.

Men and women. Generations younger than myself. Some act it, and some do not. You have the wisdom and mindfulness, the gentility and caring of someone much older.’”

“You’re doing it. You’re full of smarts and humanity.”
