THE RELEASE

"This morning we celebrated the release of Roberto. It was wonderful... There was the telling of his life. That is always first. Then the toast. He made a lovely good bye speech. He was thrilled you should have seen the look on his face when they let him go."-The Giver, Lois Lowry

I'm sure there is little comparison between Roberto's release and my own, never the less i can't help but think of it, and feel the way i felt when i learn what a release entailed of in this story. i haven't cried yet but there is no guarantee for Sunday!
