2 messages: 17th century Chinese saying, “a great man should die as a shattered jewel rather than live as an intact tile” & song“impossible dream”“about how it’s OK to have impossible goals because if you follow your unreachable star, no matter how hopeless or far, your heart will be peaceful when you’re dead, even though you might be scared and covered with scars like I am while you’re still alive”

Crazy how I was thinking about how I was thinking-not-thinking on my long drive home today. That meditation can be a way to process things more subconsciously than actively thinking about things. Intriguing!

In reality, every reader, while he is reading, is the reader of his own self. The writer’s work is merely a kind of optical instrument, which he offers to the reader to permit him to discern what, without the book, he would perhaps never have seen in himself. The reader’s recognition in his own self of what the book says is the proof of its truth. -Marcel Proust, Le temps retrouvé
