“ Religion is for those who are scared of hell, and spirituality is for those who have been there. ”
I'm happy to say that at 62, I think I've reached that point where stuff doesn't bother me as much, and my gratitude level has gone way up, especially having gone through the loss that I've had, and losing so many of the great artists that I was close to. They taught me how to see it with a grain of salt and a lot of humor and perspective.

I've watched my peers get better with age and hoped that would happen with me.
I grew up in Los Angeles in a Quaker family, and for me being Quaker was a political calling rather than a religious one.
