Remember who you love. Remember what is sacred. Remember what is true. Remember that you will die, and that this day is a gift. Remembver how you wish to life.

'Tis a fearful thing To love What death can touch. To love, to hope to dream, And oh, to lose. A thing for fools, this, Love, But a holy thing To love what death can touch.
~ 12th century poem quoted by Francis Weller in THE WILD EDGE OF SORROW
