Lavish Life with Love

'Why do you journal?' he asked.

'Because it all goes by so fast and this life deserves to be remembered', she replied

(also a line from Larkrise to Candleford)
See below for more lines gleaned from this show

It all goes by so fast

Each hour-bud to bloom

Is soon unfurled into the world

Seeds scattered on time’s tomb

It all goes by so fast

Time’s bleeding, pleading haste

Is like a glove of laugh-weep-love

Teasing our touch and taste

It all goes by so fast

Each lesson we must learn

Of gold and gray soon slips away

Sealed in Past’s iron urn

The hours fly so fast

Pray tell, what can we do?

Ah, simply this;

Slow down

Hold

Kiss

And 

Lavish them

With I love you,
I love you, I love you

Here are a few of my favorite lines snared from the BBC series
Larkrise to Candleford

Everyone's happiness is fragile;
All expectation can be dashed

Whatever goes on in that heart of ours
Should never affect our work

When a child is trying to become an adult
we call it the 'awkward age'.
But perhaps that awkward age never ends...
Perhaps we are all still children
trying to become adults

We do not need to fear change,
but neither do we need to be at the mercy of it

Our own consciences can torment us more
than the attack of others

These are night-thoughts.
The day will wash them away...

Holding resentment is like drinking poison
and waiting for the other person to die

We become who we ought to be
when we are driven by the needs of others

Isn't this how life works?
We take turns saving one another.

Poverty is no disgrace,
but only a fool would choose it.

We are all waiting,
but what comes along is usually not what we are waiting for.
