Tenderness contains an element of sadness. It is not the sadness of feeling sorry for yourself or feeling deprived, but it is a natural situation of fullness. You feel so full and rich, as if you were about to shed tears. Your eyes are full of tears, and the moment you blink, the tears will spill out of your eyes and roll down your cheeks. In order to be a good warrior, one has to feel this sad and tender heart. Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche

So true.
The loved never really die! They are always "just there"....!
Such a lovely collage. Such a true quote as well! Been thinking of you all today!
The biggest inheritances, I think, is love and respect and gentleness.
