Exploring the World through Visual Arts

“I think,” Tehanu said in her soft, strange voice, “that when I die, I can breathe back the breath that made me live.  I can give back to the world all that I didn’t do.  All that I might have been and couldn’t be.  All the choices I didn’t make.  All the things I lost and spent and wasted.  I can give them back to the world.  To the lives that haven’t been lived yet.  That will be my gift back to the world that gave me the life I did live, the love I loved, the breath I breathed.”
