Keith is sheriff. Also, picking a random selection from Eduardo Galeano's Book of Embraces always cheers me up (in an odd way), so something toward the end, in case the need is dire:
FINGERPRINTS
I was born and raised under the stars of the Southern Cross.
Wherever I go, they follow me. Under the sparkling Southern Cross, I live out the stages of my fate.
I have no god. If I had one, I would beseech him not to let me meet death, not yet. I still have a long way to go. There are moons at which I have not yet howled and suns which have not yet set me alight. I have still not swum in all the seas of the world, of which they say there are seven, nor in all the rivers of Paradise, of which they say there are four.
In Montevideo a child explains: "I never want to die, because I want to play forever."
