Too bad another person's life long dream was crushed.
"All I wanted to do was fall asleep and let the pain of disappointed dreams fade into oblivion. But nothing hurts so badly as the loss of the thing you want most. I’d never played it safe with this dream and now I was paying the price." -Tara Kirk
This little paragraph from Tara Kirk's blog brought tears to my eyes. Having a daughter who was nearly there and who gave up so much of the last year for her dream. I can only imagine how heartbroken Tara, her family and her friends must feel. This is nearly the end of Tara Kirk's career, she's much older than Tatiana. Tatiana still has a few chances to make her dream a reality.
