Suicide influence
pg. 211
paragraph 2
This is a very powerful passage. May's suicide note is what inspired August to say this, and I am so glad that she did. June really needed a push. I agree that she has only been living halfway or maybe a quarter of the way. August goes on to say that in June's life this means that she should marry Neil. I have a quote in my house from the Dalai Lama that is very similar to this. I read it often. It is very helpful reminder to me, and it seems like it will be a very helpful reminder to everyone in this book.

Kelty-
June and Lily are kind of alike, aren't they? Both are scared of being hurt, and both hold back from life.
What is the Dalai Lama quote?
(this is 3rd try--hope it doesn't repeat 3 times)
