I was scared of dying when my daughters were very young. Never before and never after.
Old age, however, does frighten me a great deal.
I fear losing my head. I fear becoming a burden, bieng sick, being poor, but mostly, I fear losing my dignity and my right to decide...

Patsy, eres única buscando y editando imágenes que provocan un gran impacto emocional. Un beso. Francisca
Nena, me quede como estaba, hablado aun pesco algo,pero escrito...da lo mismo.La imagen es muy bonita y tu intención tambien..Un abrazo
Gracias Francisca...
Genettica, es una pena que no vivamos más cerca - si entiendes el inglés hablado, aprenderías el idioma en un pis pas. Gracias por intentarlo, de todas formas.
Conmovedor, además de una original forma de rendir homenaje a un ser querido.
Saludos.

Ja Ja! I like the idea of the Polish ambassador... If only we got to choose in what pastures our brain will roam when it loses control...
