"The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry."
~ Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell To Arms

"Our lives disconnect and reconnect, we move on, and later we may touch one another, again bounce away. This is the felt shape of a human life, neither simply linear nor wholly disjunctive nor endlessly bifurcating, but rather this bouncey sequence of bumping into's and tumblings apart."

Story...
The beginning and the end of any story are also at the same time a part of the story, the narrative is alive and is in process, becoming out of being. A journey of discovery, there are not ideals to be achieved but a story to be lived. To stop doing and simply be in the midst of your story is to find a semblance of peace; to experience grace in each moment of living.
