I really thought that it was over for Lucille when I spent the gas I needed to get out away from this hurricane returning to make sure my child was safe, he was supposed to (and eventually did) leave with his gf's family but they tarried and I got worried. So, of course I have had various philosophical thoughts this last few days.

There is a phrase I have heard "Pray to God but keep on rowing to shore", which stands for the concept that God hears us but expects us to do our part achieving our goals.

But I have also heard the phrase 'When your number is called, your time is up", standing for the concept that your moment of death is predestined and it does not matter what you do to either bring it on or avoid it.

This subject rarely occupies me as I have too many other thoughts that need thinking, but what do y'all think?
