You can know the whole world and still feel lost in it.
Mitch Albom
Image
It is far more comforting to think God listened and said no, than to think that nobody’s out there.
Mitch Albom

To know you're going to die, and to be prepared for it at any time. That's better. That way you can actually be more involved in your life while you're living.

Shouldn't the world stop? Don't they know what has happened to me?
Mitch Albom

And in that line now was a whiskered old man, with a linen cap and a crooked nose, who waited in a place called the Stardust Band Shell to share his part of the secret of heaven: that each affects the other and the other affects the next, and the world is full of stories, but the stories are all one.

Everything man does today to be efficient, to fill the hour? It does not satisfy. It only makes him hungry to do more. Man wants to own his existence. But no one owns time.

Courage is confused with picking up arms and cowardness is confused with laying them down.
Mitch Albom
Image
You can be a mama's boy, be a daddy's boy, but you can't be both. So you cling to the one you think you might lose.
Mitch Albom

If God wants it, it will happen.

I used to be a classic workaholic, and after seeing how little work and career really mean when you reach the end of your life, I put a new emphasis on things I believe count more. These things include: family, friends, being part of a community, and appreciating the little joys of the average day.

When we are most alone is when we embrace another's loneliness.
Mitch Albom
Image
Love like rain, can nourish from above, drenching couples with soaking joy. But sometimes, under the angry heat of life, love dries on the surface and must nourish from below, tending to its roots, keeping itself alive.
Mitch Albom
Image
Had he known his death was imminent, he might have gone somewhere else. Instead, he did what we all do. He went about his dull routine as if all the days in the world were still to come. ~pg 4

Death is the end of a lifetime, not the end of a relationship.

What in life can love not penetrate?

So, have we solved the secret of happiness? I believe so, he said Are you going to tell me? Yes.Ready? Ready. Be satisfied. That's it? Be greatful. That's it? For what you have.For the love you receive.And for what God has given you. That's it? He looked me in the eye.Then he sighed deeply. That's it.

Young men go to war. Sometimes because they have to, sometimes because they want to. Always, they feel they are supposed to. This comes from the sad, layered stories of life, which over the centuries have seen courage confused with picking up arms, and cowardice confused with laying them down.
