We're the bridge across forever, arching above the sea, adventuring for our pleasure, living mysteries for the fun of it, choosing disasters triumphs challenges impossible odds, testing ourselves over and again – RB
Ceaselessly musing, venturing, throwing,
Seeking the spheres, to connect them;
Till the bridge you will need, be form'd
Till the ductile anchor hold;
Till the gossamer thread you fling,
Catch somewhere, O my Soul.

Thats funny that you cite this RB passage. Almost exactly one year ago somebody (hint: name begins with Mar) mentioned RBs "The bridge across forever" and this inspiried me to reread the book.
But it was the day before I flew to La Gomera and no bookshop in my town had the book. So I orderd the book at a bookshop at the airport from where my flight started the next day.
But I was very dissapointed when the lady at the bookshop told me that the book wasn´t delivered by the wholesaler. So I was waiting in the waiting hall for my flight when suddenly an announcement caught my attention because I heard my name (strange feeling BTW to hear your own name in an announcment at the airport): The lady at the bookshop had found my book in the depth of a wholeseller´s book-box.
Since that time this book has always been something special to me.

Oh Good - It's not just me. His books have this funny way of finding me just at the right moments.

Me Too - I was trying to remember when that picture was taken. It's on the back porch from last summer. I was talking with Marisa and I can't remember if it was Nicholas, Alexander, Kaitlyn or Zachary who came out with the camera and took that picture.
