I remember this river, we've sat here before and it feels good to be back.

It feels good to be back? Man, if ever there was a place I think this comment is inappropriate :P

Patience, but also going to where life does not flow. To where one casts the hurt away.

And yes, the Goddess is a goddess. Hers is life to give, at least while her daughter is present. Hers is life, and death. And responsibility, and being looked to, can be hard.

Also, it is not about dwelling with death, but being in love with it. Death, like life, just is. It is us who fall in love with things. And with goddesses.

And thank you kindly, Alain. You know, as someone who is on the receiving end of my comments, that it's not the count, but the quality. The quality of comments such as yours <3
