"A few times in my life, I've had moments of absolute clarity. When for a few brief seconds ... the silence drowns out the noise .. and I can feel ... rather than think. And things seem so sharp. And the world seems so fresh.

It's as though it had all just come into existence. I can never make these moments last. I cling to them, but like everything, they fade. I've lived my life on these moments. And I realize that everything is exactly the way it's meant to be."
