To be clichรฉ, death is a part of life and it's going to happen to all of us. I have the blessing of getting a little bit of advance notice and I am able to optimize my use of time down the home stretch.
Never make a decision until you have to.
Find the best in everybody, no matter how long you have to wait for them to show it
You can always change you plan, but only if you have one.
If you have a question, then find the answer.
If you can find your footing between two cultures, sometimes you can have the best of both worlds.
