Can miles truly separate you from friends... If you want to be with someone you love, aren't you already there?

My airplane is quiet, and for a moment still an alien, still a stranger to the ground, I am home.

Having made the decision to love, had I chosen life instead of death?

Pain and adversity are powerful vehicles to promote personal growth. Nothing helps you learn, grow, and evolve more quickly. Nothing offers you as big an opportunity to reclaim more of your authentic power as a person.

It's like a pulsar inside me. There is this great burst of energy, forcing me to write, and then the star goes quiet for a time, and I think it's gone, but it's gathering energy for another burst. And I seem to be almost unwilling participants in this.

The simplest things are often the truest.

nobody means to get carried away in mediocrity, but it happens, it happens unless you think about everything you do, unless you make every choice the best one you know how to make.
