It was a certainty that kept his eyes where they belonged—off the waves and straight ahead to the outstretched arms of Jesus."

I could almost see him smiling confidently, contemplating a future as wide and luminous as that avenue, and for a moment I thought there were no more ghosts there than that of absence and loss that the light that smiled on me was borrowed light, real only as long as I could hold it in my eyes, second by second."
