I got this email from a friend...it is really fabulous:
>I wish you enough...
>>>>
>>>> Recently, I overheard a Mother and daughter in their last moments
>>>>together at a regional airport. They had announced her departure
and
>>>>standing near the security gate, they hugged and she said, "I love
you.
>>>>I
>>>>wish you enough."
>>>>
>>>> She in turn said, "Mom, our life together has been more than
enough.
>>>>Your love is all I ever needed. I wish you enough, too, Mom." They
>>>>kissed
>>>>and she left.
>>>>
>>>> The elder woman walked over toward the window where I was seated.
>>>>Standing there, I could see she wanted and needed to cry. I tried
not to
>>>>intrude on her privacy, but she welcomed me in by asking, "Did you
ever
>>>>say good-bye to someone knowing it would be forever?"
>>>>
>>>>"Yes, I have," I replied. "Forgive me for asking, but why is this a
>>>>forever good-bye?" I asked.
>>>>
>>>>"I am old and she lives much too far away. I have challenges ahead
and
>>>>the
>>>>reality is, the next trip back will be for my funeral," she said.
>>>>
>>>> "When you were saying good-bye I heard you say, "I wish you
enough.
>>>> May
>>>>I ask what that means?"
>>>>
>>>>She began to smile. "That's a wish that has been handed down from
other
>>>>generations. My parents used to say it to everyone." She paused for
a
>>>>moment and looked up as if trying to remember it in detail, and she
>>>>smiled
>>>>even more.
>>>>
>>>>"When we said 'I wish you enough,' we were wanting the other person
to
>>>>have a life filled with just enough good things to sustain them,"
she
>>>>continued. Then, turning toward me, she shared the following as if
she
>>>>were reciting it from memory:
>>>>
>>>>I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright.
>>>>
>>>>I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more.
>>>>
>>>>I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive.
>>>>
>>>> I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life appear
much
>>>>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."
>>>>
>>>> She then began to sob and walked away.
>>>>
>>>>My friends and loved ones, I wish you ENOUGH!!! They say "It takes
a
>>>>minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day
to
>>>>love
>>>>them, but then an entire life to forget them."
>>>>
>>>>
>>>>Take the time to live ............
