She was the daughter of a minor media personality, exiled to the United States by a broken home and her parents' shattered marriage. She was in town on vacation, which is how we accidentally met.

Don't search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer." (Rilke)

See you later, Ben. ^_^

Step back, my friend, and realize that in the enormity of Yahweh's universe, such things do not even come close to the littlest flicker of stars,or the slightest shift in the brightness of yellow dwarves.

The time has come to for you to step out of your collapsing star (lest you be trapped in its nothingness) and look for that universe that is being born for you right this moment.

Gotta see it through now.
