never say of anything that you have lost it but that it has been given back. is your child dead? it has been given back. "but it was a scoundrel who took it!" well, what does it matter to you by whose hands the Giver has taken it back again? while something is given to you, take care of it, as something that belongs to another, as travelers treat their inn.
