Break on through
Early Saturday morning, my wife received a phone call from her sister on the other side of the country. She told my wife that their father had passed away this morning after several weeks of being very sick and delusional. My wife booked a flight for the evening on that same day. Shortly after, she and I went out buying things for her trip. When we came back, I saw that the
 message indicator on our phone was blinking. I checked out the message. Nothing was said for the first few seconds. Then a male voice close to the phone started singing, "Break On Through To The Other Side." If it would not have been such a strange timing, I would have thought it's just a telemarketer waiting for someone to pick up, and just singing a song he heard on the radio this morning. However considering the time and event, I am not so sure. Anyway, we thought it was nice of my father in law to let us know that he had arrived on the other side.
