of course the pace of change never slows, even when we've convinced ourselves it will.

It's less a matter of looking the other way than of closing our eyes to what we can't stop from happening.

My mother once told me I was like water. Water can carve its way even through stone. And when trapped, water makes a new path.

We must use whatever methods we can to understand the movement of the universe around us and time our actions so that we are not fighting the currents, but moving with them.

When we fight upstream against a rocky undercurrent, every foothold takes on a kind of urgency.

Perhaps it seems odd that a casual meeting on the street could have brought about such change. But sometimes life is like that isn't it

Never give up; for even rivers someday wash dams away.
