Parting Gifts

For: the E-Moderation Learning Community, Oct 2013

From: Ana María Hurtado (Lima, Perú)

For Jill in Paris

The voyage of discovery is not in seeking new

landscapes but in having new eyes. Marcel Proust

For Maria Elena

in Rumania

“All of that pile on you so

that, sooner or later, you

cannot bear it anymore. And

in that situation I started to

write, because there was no

other ways for me to

express, except through the

vicious cycle of words.”

― Herta Müller, Rumanian

Nobel Prize for Literature

For Stephanie

in Melbourne

“Fugitive as

morning light she

moves

In a thin rain out

and across the

river

Leaving no

footprints”

Dorothy Hewett

For Carol

in Oxforshire

“Any woman anywhere

will blossom in a hundred

unexpected talents and

capacities simply by being

given the opportunity to do

so.”

Doris Lessing

For Lynn

in Germany

For Agnes

in Cameroon

“I did not choose writing,

I found it. In my younger years,

I used it mainly

to express difficult things

to share with others,

to feel free and peaceful.”

Leonora Miano

For Carla in Chile

For Lindsay in Spain

Fight for what you want

Don’t despair if something goes wrong,

Today can be a great day

And tomorrow as well.

For Pia in Chile

For Jane in Italy

When hope is firmly anchored in your soul,

life could weather all situations

even in the stormy conditions and sail to a bright future.
