In their tombs unknowing

"Perhaps "In Their Tombs Unknowing" could be described as a tragic love story, but no story of love or anything else of human significance occurs in a vacuum. Real life experiences by real people often involves tragedy, but it also involves love and happiness, gain and loss, fulfillment an disappointment, success and failure. These and all other experiences are set against a backdrop of other human beings living their lives in their appointed time and space, and those experiences develop as life is lived day by day. John Donne said that no man is an island, but Matthew Arnold said, in effect, that we all are. Both were correct, and negotiating the great sea of life in whatever boat we posess provides each of us with an ever-changing view of the shoreline and an opportunity to evaluate constantly our hopes and fears of planting our feet on solid ground."
