I tried folding a paper crane again the other day   and  it didn't turn out right tracing back my folds, I knew I missed somewhere unfolding, re-creasing, refolding just tracing my fingers back fingers     feeling the paper and beyond A three-minute fold times 10 now Even if I needed to do other things, I paid no mind, determined to fold that crane I had to get this right. I had to. Almost there... As it turns out, I only missed one step, --something to do with its wings, I believe... Amazing how a single step could be so important. Stretching its wings now, the paper crane soars proudly on my palm... So beautiful. In refolding this paper crane, I hope I never forget... Amazing how easily things slip from our minds, but more amazing is when our hearts Do remember. We remember,    and then we Do something... ...I have hundreds of paper cranes yet to fold, it may be taking me far longer than what I had initially planned... but yes, you are in my thoughts,    you are in my prayers... and I shall continue folding these cranes. ...I revel in the thought, for that moment, when I can send them flying towards the Sun...
