I started wondering why I ____ to run the light. I was not afraid of being caught, because there was ____ no policeman anywhere around and there certainly would have been no ____ in going through it.
Much later that ____, after I’d met with a group in Lewisburg and had climbed into bed near midnight, the question of why I’d stopped for that light ____ me.

We do ____ we say we’ll do. We show up when we say we’ll show up.
