Random quote of the day:

“That’s one of the most ruthless lessons trauma teaches you: You are not in charge. All you can control is your reaction to whatever grenades the demented universe rolls in your path. Beginning with whether you get out of bed.”

—Jennifer Senior, “What Bobby Mcilvaine Left Behind,” The Atlantic, September 2021

Random quote of the day:

“Time, as we know, like the sea, is a force and a creature all of its own. We can stop neither of them. We stand on the sand, watching as the days become years, as the line made by the tide disappears, as the hungry waves devour the borderline that wants to find the land. People, places, experiences and the act of living a life, our days come together and we find we have grown; we are being carried in time’s salty course.”

—Kerri ní Dochartaigh, Thin Places
