"The rain set early in tonight, The sullen wind was soon awake, It tore the elm-tops down for spite, And did its best to vex the lake: I listened with heart fit to break. When glided in Porphyria; straight She shut the cold out and the storm, And kneeled and made the cheerless grate Blaze up and all the cottage warm;"

-- Robert Browning

But if we are not present, every moment will be like every other, and nothing of the preciousness of life will touch us.”
