Do you believe in miracles? Well, you should. In fact, life itself is a big miracle. There are so many things that are beyond our understanding. There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle you can live as if everything is a miracle.

Thus I came...to a deep religiosity, which, however, reached an abrupt end at the age of 12.
