“God is everywhere—you just have to clear your channel, or you’ll miss it.”
― Matthew Perry, Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing

“Stillness can’t really exist ... because even when we’re not moving, we’re breathing, and breath is movement.”
― Christina Baker Kline, The Scenic Route

“Bravery has nothing to do with not feeling fear, and everything to do with facing it.”
― Brynne Weaver, Leather & Lark

“THE DASH SADDENS ME. THE SIMPLICITY MISSES SO much. It doesn’t allow for all the downs that bring a person low or the joys that lift them up. All the bends and turns that make up a lifetime are flattened and erased. The dash on a tombstone is wholly inadequate. Everything around it is more remarkable. The name, etched in cursive or dignified fonts. Sometimes a photo is carved into the grey granite, giving life to the dead. Yet the dash, that line that carries the entire sum of a life within it, is unremarkable.”
― Amanda Peters, The Berry Pickers
