”Lebenslangerschicksalsschatz is not something that develops over time. It is something that happens instantaneously. It courses through you like the water of a river after a storm, filling you and emptying you all at once. You feel it throughout your body, in your hands, in your heart, in your stomach, in your skin. Have you ever felt this way about someone? If you have to think about it, you have not felt it. Everyone does eventually. You just never know when or where.

Sometimes when I wake up, I feel like I’m still sleeping. I feel like all the colors and shapes of the world have collided and all I can do is just sit there and watch.

I think a person’s heart has a way of turning off when it can’t find reason. I guess that’s why nature has always had an inspiring presence. Everything follows a purpose.

I guess we’re missing something.

Why do we struggle to breathe a more righteous breath, when we all end up in the same place?

I’d like to hope our history is worth remembering. An imprint of careful design. A feeling of heartfelt purpose. And a sense of hope for something bigger than ourselves.

Then maybe I’ll wake up.

”The sociologist, at his best, is a man with a taste for other lands, inwardly open to the measureless richness of human possibilities, eager for new horizons and new worlds of human meaning.

Peter L. Berger

”Believe in others. Believe in good. Believe in yourself.

”There’s so much we know about the human body, but we’re still amazed by the human spirit.
