Don’t weep! We are all insects!
Lovers, even the stars themselves
Must eventually part.
-Kobayashi Issa
Parting is such sweet sorrow. Issa found solace in how universal the troubles that exist in all our lives can be. We are all the same- people, insects, stars. Each of us with hopes, dreams, and fears, stumbling along the path we are on.
