I am not PMSing...

...so why did reading this on Ali's blog make tears spring to my eyes?

Mary Cholmondeley: Every year I live I am more convinced that the waste of life lies in the love we have not given, the powers we have not used, the selfish prudence that will risk nothing, and which shirking pain, misses happiness as well. No one ever yet was the poorer in the long run for having once in a lifetime 'let out all the length of all the reins.'

Thanks, Ali. :)
