{"quotes":[{"text":"It was evenings like that when beneath dim light and relaxing in a sultry bath that she missed him the most. A flicker of candlelight, wind breathing snow against the window and the soothing scent of creme caramel – all were a comfort to her as she closed her eyes, summoned memories and many a tender thought. She didn't feel deserving of the devotion bestowed upon her, but she had finally learned to accept its wondrous gift, knowing that love was the source of existence and its only end.","author":"Donna Lynn Hope","tags":["devoted","devotion","love","missing","reflection","remembering","snow","winter"],"id":479,"author_id":"Donna+Lynn+Hope"},{"text":"One day this war will end.

Time may change some things, but not all things. Each day brings me closer to him, and the age in which he passed from this world into the next, but I still fight the urge, on rare occasions, to pick up the phone and dial his number, which I still remember. It's decades later, but that last meal we shared, laughing and smiling at each other from across the table, lost in harmony, seems but yesterday. Then there was the last lingering look and the final wave goodbye.","author":"Donna Lynn Hope","tags":["death","goodbye","memories","missing","remembering"],"id":18312,"author_id":"Donna+Lynn+Hope"},{"text":"Remember your connection with the cosmos.
