Ruth: What you have to say means a great deal to me, you know.
It works both ways. I can’t just applaud you and pat you on
your back and offer unconditional love and support.
I could use a little reassuring, too.

I’m jealous that you have all of life ahead of you.
I can’t sit back and watch you do the dance that I danced long ago, and not think about
time. I can’t.
That’s what it’s about. Don’t you see?
Time.
