“I have always been intrigued by the events that shape a person's life, that truly have the power to redirect it. By equal turns, they can be grand and dramatic-the kind that hit with a slap-and simpler, more mundane, arriving in the form of small gestures. Such moments always manage to come as a surprise, and never where one might expect to find them. And often, they contain an element of grace.”
