Sometimes when I’m deep in thought and going for a relaxing swim in my pool at night, I look up at the stars through the water and gaze for a few seconds in the silence and calm of the submersion and wonder if there isn’t someone, somewhere out there in the vast stretches of humanity sharing existence in this dimension under these very same stars as me who has actually sung “99 bottles of beer on the wall” to its conclusion. If this person exists – this brave adventurer who has conquered the Tootsie Pop of music – I sure hope they too are having a serene and fulfilling night.
Have you ever wondered if God is up there somewhere?
