We go through life and don't pay attention to God even when he's yelling. Then there are the moments you never expect and can't avoid. It is at those times when you can hear him ever so clearly; even when he's whispering.

Funerals aren't scheduled.

There were times in my life i thought for sure the end was near. But it was only the end of that time and the beginning of the next...

Some things are destined to be -- it just takes us a couple of tries
to get there.

We cannot choose our fate, it is our destiny that our fate will choose us

But I was always coming here. I though about one of my favorite Sufi poems, which says that God long ago drew a circle in the sand exactly around the spot where you are standing right now. I was never not coming here. This was never not going to happen.
