Maybe death is the great equalizer, the one big thing that can finally make strangers shed a tear for one another

Everyone knows they're going to die, but nobody believes it.

Keep your heart open for as long as you can, as wide as you can, for others and especially for yourself.

Be compassionate, and take responsibility for each other. If we only learned those lessons, this world would be so much a better place.

We're involved in trillions of little acts just to keep going.

We have a sense that we should be like the mythical cowboy... able to take on and conquer anything and live in the world without the need for other people.

Is today the day? Am I ready? Am I doing all I need to do? Am I being the person I want to be?
