"You don't have to be afraid of living alone. I feel so sad to think of what will happen if you don't learn this huge lesson. You'll lose pieces of yourself along the road. You know how much you love to dance?...All that joy is going to fall away because you're going to stop dancing for twenty years -- unless you take care to listen to yourself and shepherd all the pieces of who you are though to the future."
- Eileen Fisher, What I Know Now: Letters to My Younger Self
