Good-bye Ms. Gloria Jollymore

Bambi does not want the day to end without a little tribute to Ms. Gloria Jollymore. In the morning, she resorted to a couple of words, even when speechless (https://bit.ly/3kMYrsS). Now, she will resort to music, if she may.

The chosen song is entitled “Je n’aurai pas le temps” [“I won’t have the time“] with an English translation following it. It is a powerful reminder of how short a lifetime can be. Thankfully, it is is up to us to make it meaningful. This is what Ms. Gloria Jollymore did so well. She devoted herself to a career at an institution she loved dearly. While doing so, she inspired so many of us.

Thank you, Gloria (Jollymore), and may your memory be eternal…

I won’t have time (https://bit.ly/402qBiz)

“I won’t have time, won’t have time.

Even if I run

faster than the wind,

faster than time,

even if I fly,

I won’t have time, won’t have time

to visit the whole immensity

of a universe so big.

Even in a hundred years,

I won’t have time

to do everything

I open my heart fully,

I love with all my eyes

It is too little, for so many hearts

and so many flowers

Thousands of days, it is too short,

Much too short

And to love, as one must love

when one truly loves

even in a hundred years,

I won’t have time, won’t have time

I open my heart fully,

I love with all my eyes

It is too little, for so many hearts

and so many flowers

Thousands of days, it is too short,

Much too short“.
