Stars, I have seen them fall, But when they drop and die No star is lost at all From all the star-sown sky. The toil of all that be Helps not the primal fault; It rains into the sea And still the sea is salt.
I was born by God's dear grace, in an extraordinary place. Where the stars and stripes, and the eagle fly.
We can never sneer at the stars, mock the dawn, or scoff at the totality of being.
Thou wert my guide, philosopher, and friend.
Cogito cogito ergo cogito sum -- "I think that I think, therefore I think that I am;" as close an approach to certainty as any philosopher has yet made.

Friend, you are a divine mingle-mangle of guts and stardust. So hang in there! If doors opened for me, they can open for anyone.
Yes, we too are stardust.
I am stardust gathered fleetingly into form.
