“1. The WORLD problem is that we see eachother as separate from ourselves, but despite our vast differences in perception, we are all someone else's child, parent, etc, we are all loved and cared for by someone, and we are all HUMAN. 2. Stop preaching about your pro-life faith while you're supporting another human's death, whether it be a human difference of gender or gender identity, race, culture, politics, or nation. It's hypocritical. 3.There is a time to live and a time to die for everyone, and no matter how much we think we control that dialog, no matter what means creates our living and dying, it is as it is meant to be; or, do we not see life and death happening despite our perspectives?”

“Even now, I like to look in the mirror. Over the years, I’ve followed the progress of the wrinkles furrowing my brow. My cheeks have grown thinner and my lips have become pale, but it’s all me and I feel a sort of fondness for the reflection in the mirror. [...] I was just over forty. That was twenty-two years ago. I suppose I am an old woman, but I still love looking at my face. I don’t know if it’s beautiful or ugly, but it is the only human face I ever see. I smile at it and receive a friendly smile back.”

“Human beings are the only animals that experience denial. All creatures will try to survive under attack, will burrow when under siege or limp through the forest. But they recognize trouble when it hits. Not one fish, in the history of fish, having gotten its fins chewed off, needs another fish's perspective: I don't know, Tom, that looks pretty bad. Denial is humankind'a specialty, our handy aversion. We are so allergic to our own mortality; we'll do anything to make it not so. Denial is also the weirdest stage of grief because it so closely mimics stupidity. But it can't be helped.”
