“From now on this is an entirely different story. Completely new and unpredictable.
I do not know how this story will unfold. As I said, neither you nor I nor anyone can ever know whether a story is happy or tragic. It may be impossible to categorize a story so neatly in the first place. Life takes on various flavors as it flows.
I've decided to confront it. Confront whatever life throws at me, as I always have. And however much I can feel, nothing more, nothing less.”
