Life is complex, beautiful, awful, terrifying, miraculously fulfilling. I am awed by the potential of hope when I experience it, and my goal is to encounter it on a daily basis as a part of the method of actually living my life. I don't want to settle. And I don' want to give up either.
"Non avere paura- di cosa cercati esiste." That is completely wrong, I know, but it is all I can remember from a T-shirt I saw in Italy: "Do not be afraid: what you are searching for exists." Even if I can't find it, or even if I can't contain it all at once, it does exist, and that, for now, is cause for hope, and even excitement, and even joy.
So in the meantime, shower and goodnight.
