“I don’t know if the conversations I have with God are actually prayer, but I have faith that the conversation is enough. I believe in karma and trying to ‘do the right thing.’ I believe in Mother Nature and try to treat her with as much respect and admiration as possible. When I don’t get that parking space close to the store because someone else zoomed in to catch it, I thank God that my legs are strong enough to walk from a far distance. When I’m running late, I have faith that by running late, I missed the accident up the road that I could have very well be involved in. It is the little things that keep me centered.”
