In view of the mess left behind by the French and ourselves, we cannot simply leave Libya alone.
I don`t get angry often, but you mess with my wife, you mess with my kids, that will do it every time. Donald Trump, you`re a snivelling coward and leave Heidi the hell alone.
We can leave a place behind, or we can stay in that place and leave our selfishness (often expressed in feeling sorry for ourselves) behind. If we leave a place and take our selfishness with us, the cycle of problems starts all over again no matter where we go. But if we leave our selfishness behind, no matter where we are, things start to improve.
When we die our entire legacy is simply the added together strengths of all the connections we make with others. This is the ghost of ourselves we leave behind. This is showing up.
We cannot bear to regard ourselves simply as playthings of blind chance, we cannot admit to feeling ourselves abandoned.
Where are they now that we, the men whom they sent off to war, have returned? These are commanders who have deserted their troops, and there is no more serious crime in the law of war. The Army says they never leave their wounded. The Marines say they never leave even their dead. These men have left all the casualties and retreated behind a pious shield of public rectitude. They have left the real stuff of their reputation bleaching behind them in the sun in this country.
If I leave you alone, and you leave me alone, we are both better off. And I will leave you alone if you leave me alone. And there is a lot of traction to be gained from that.
To be left behind... or to leave behind. I wonder which hurts more.
Hillary Clinton wants to leave behind No Child Left Behind.
I'm Hispanic - don't mess around with my coffee. Leave my beans alone.
When boys and girls go out to play there is always someone left behind, and the boy who is left behind is no use to the girl who is left behind.
Here in Denmark, you can easily just be left alone. This is my 'hood, and people leave me alone; it's nice.
You don't mess with politics and religion. Leave it alone. People get upset at that sometimes.
All conservatism is based upon the idea that if you leave things alone you leave them as they are. But you do not. If you leave a thing alone you leave it to a torrent of change.
I don't know if anyone has noticed but I only ever write about one thing: being alone. The fear of being alone, the desire to not be alone, the attempts we make to find our person, to keep our person, to convince our person to not leave us alone, the joy of being with our person and thus no longer alone, the devastation of being left alone. The need to hear the words: You are not alone.
I do not view suicide as wicked, just terribly sad. There is only one death, but it is like a stone cast into a pond - the ripples stretch far. Such an act must leave a burden of sorrow, guilt, shame and confusion on an entire family. A natural death, such as my father suffered, is hard enough to deal with. A decision to end one's life must be still more devastating for those left behind. I cannot imagine the degree of hopelessness someone must feel to contemplate such an act.
The legacy I want to leave is a child-care system that says that no kid is going to be left alone or left unsafe.
