“Most books contain stories within them, and they often know where the story will go and what, exactly, will happen. But one must be careful with stories—they are violent and cruel things after all, full of heroes and villains and triumph and conquest. Stories are for kings and dragonslayers and for the blood-soaked hungry blades. It is easy, I have found, to seek to imprison the world inside our stories. To glorify the lives of powerful men, to celebrate their victories and mourn their tragedies. To build a reality where everything ties up neatly with a bow, and everything makes sense. There is a comfort in stories like these, disconnected from what it means to be alive. But I’m not here for a story. I’m here for the journey.”

“Often, in life, we don’t fail. Sometimes, we struggle to do something, get passed over, do something we wish we hadn’t, or give up. But even those moments aren’t truly failures in a pejorative sense. Mistakes, maybe. Suffering at the cruelty of others. Listening to your body and your brain and accepting their natural limitations. But it doesn’t mean you’re a disaster, and it doesn’t mean you’ve failed. Your journey will just continue on another path.”
