“It was a rough crossing, the one from childhood to the next life. And as with any other harsh journey, not everything survived.”

“Maybe it had begun to happen before the slowing, but it was only afterward that I realized it: My friendships were disintegrating. Things were coming apart. It was a rough crossing, the one from childhood to the next life. And as with any other harsh journey, not everything survived.”

“Creation and destruction are the two ends of the same moment. And everything between the creation and the next destruction is the journey of life.”

“Life is one of Gods greatest Journeys, But Death is the next great Adventure.”

“You can go through life and make new friends every year - every month practically - but there was never any substitute for those friendships of childhood that survive into adult years. Those are the ones in which we are bound to one another with hoops of steel.”

“If there is a next life, I hope it's in the past; I don't think the future will be any more handleable.I think it's a little harsh how the END button is red.”
