“When it comes down to intuition, when it comes down to gut feelings about whether a song is right, you can get distracted with words, rationalization.

“I think there are strands in all of our lives that can be seen if we step back to recognize them. Coincidence is probably as close as I'll get to having spirituality. I do see patterns in my life sometimes, and I am thrilled by what I see.

If there are miracles in my life, they are rooted in the fact of coincidence.” ThinkingSometimesSpiritualityMiracleCoincidenceAfter Death Author:Armistead Maupin
