“No I would not give you false hope
On this strange and mournful day
But the mother and child reunion
Is only a motion away”

Mother and Child Reunion
Song lyrics, Paul Simon (1972)

On this strange and mournful day

But it just don't work out that way...

The very things I might have given into, that demanded, that said, this is your life. I mean, this is your only way to survive, are the things I found hardest to end. 'Cause I believed in something else. You have to work like mad to make people understand...
