Brian’s collected pieces, volume by volume.
The greatest hope I can muster as I continue my journey through life, is acceptance for the uncertainty. This bitter pill comes first with a large dose of humility, soon followed by plenty of resentment. Lately I much prefer to see this world the way a child does. When I ask her for the secret to life, she just rolls her eyes and says, Why would you ever ask me that? Mystery, as it turns out, is God’s answer to my ridiculous questions.
