<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Today's prompt immediately brought forward the memory of a friend who passed away quite young. He told me it was wrong to die when he had not lived, and that he did not want to dance with the dead. He told me once that the dead live in the ruins of their lives, hence the photo above. </span><br />
