“I wonder if that ninety-nine-pound, fifty-eight year old woman staring at the fading firmament was feeling the same way I was. That my life could not be summed up like the neat columns of numbers on a chart, that my life could swerve in an unpredictable direction at any time. That the person I thought I knew best just because we had blood ties could actually be the most mysterious and unknown. That there were times in life when you just have to stop holding on. And that was why the only thing I could do now was to cease all thinking, to simply watch her as she smiled and attached meaning to silly things like the rising and setting of the sun.”
