"Somebody said to me, ‘wow, so you’re really beating the grim reaper.’ And I said to him, ‘we don’t beat the reaper by living longer, we beat the reaper by living well and living fully, for the reaper will come for all of us. The question is what do we do between the time we’re born and the time he shows up. Because when he shows up, it’s too late to do the things that you’re going to kind of get around to." Randy Pausch
We all owe God a death, it's a shame some are taken so early. But from death we learn, we reflect, we reprioritize. It's been five years since Whitney passed. She looked out for me when we were kids, and I'm sure even now she's looking over all of those who were close to her. I've moved on, but not away from her, rather with her even closer to my heart.
