We are a wondrous gathering of atoms formed into an incredible being,
capable of experiencing our own existence. While we live this experience
we must be thankful for it, and live it fully. When it ends, we return
to what we were before it began. What we create and leave behind is our
gift to those who will follow us. We return to the universe as we came
from it, to be recreated, and recycled into the infinite all.
~ * Allan Revich
Farewell.
