Name: Jan Wax Mendocino County, N. CA (Zone 9a) I'm a semi-retired studio potter.
I read this on the internet and decided to post it.
A man was saying goodbye to his daughter at an airport. They both knew that he was sick and that the next time she flew back to this city it would probably be for his funeral. He gave these words to her:
I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun even more.
I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive and everlasting.
I wish you enough pain so that even the smallest of joys in life may appear bigger.
I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting.
I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess.
I wish you enough hellos to get you through the final good-bye.
