That moment you look up and the clouds are moving so fast you think you’re seeing a highlight reel of the Galaxy. Literally, reeling. And you wonder what else is out there, and who. And the only certainty is it isn’t you.

To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget.
