Some time, when you are able, you might want to look up a book called "The Bridge Over The River:Communications from the Life After Death of a Young Artist Who Died in World War I"...Translated from the German by Joseph Wetzl. Only published in 1974. Take care, Barbara Dear Ivan,

My wife passed as the result of a brain tumor three years ago. Though there was much sadness and loss, there was also wonder. A truly thin place. Afterwards I printed up and passed out the Tagore quote above to all visitors. Courage and blessings. Tom Minet I know this is a difficult time, but also a time when there is great beauty.
