Beautifully put, my friend. I know not how much wisdom I can claim to have, but I wish to believe that this long life can be a blessing, rather than a curse. That we might live to see more joy than sorrow, and make far more friends than enemies.

[ The thought seems to bring him peace, his expression warm after all that. ]

If I can save but one life, then I have done my duty.
