““No one wants to think about the very real fact that we could die at any time, that our lives are so fragile as to be susceptible to such an ugly truth. That some regular old day, any day, say, Sunday (just for an example) could be our last day in this world. But every day is someone’s last, isn’t it? Just as every day is someone’s first. And by the grace of God, most of us don’t expect it. The tough, salty taste that is life is made just a touch sweeter in this way. Just a touch.””
