"Most of us long for our lives to mean something; we long to be part of a story bigger than ourselves, that's hard to find on your own."

Whatever happens from here on in Jurgen has given us the best nights of our lives, fostered a connection that felt lost, he’s given us everything

Now is not the time for melancholy, that can come later

The least he deserves off us, right now, is what he’s given us, everything
